This  is  a  digital  copy  of  a  book  that  was  preserved  for  generations  on  library  shelves  before  it  was  carefully  scanned  by  Google  as  part  of  a  project 
to  make  the  world's  books  discoverable  online. 

It  has  survived  long  enough  for  the  copyright  to  expire  and  the  book  to  enter  the  public  domain.  A  public  domain  book  is  one  that  was  never  subject 
to  copyright  or  whose  legal  copyright  term  has  expired.  Whether  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  may  vary  country  to  country.  Public  domain  books 
are  our  gateways  to  the  past,  representing  a  wealth  of  history,  culture  and  knowledge  that's  often  difficult  to  discover. 

Marks,  notations  and  other  marginalia  present  in  the  original  volume  will  appear  in  this  file  -  a  reminder  of  this  book's  long  journey  from  the 
publisher  to  a  library  and  finally  to  you. 

Usage  guidelines

prevent  abuse  by  commercial  parties,  including  placing  technical  restrictions  on  automated  querying. 

We  also  ask  that  you: 

+  Make  non-commercial  use  of  the  files  We  designed  Google  Book  Search  for  use  by  individuals,  and  we  request  that  you  use  these  files  for 
personal,  non-commercial  purposes. 

+  Refrain  fi'om  automated  querying  Do  not  send  automated  queries  of  any  sort  to  Google's  system:  If  you  are  conducting  research  on  machine 
translation,  optical  character  recognition  or  other  areas  where  access  to  a  large  amount  of  text  is  helpful,  please  contact  us.  We  encourage  the 
use  of  public  domain  materials  for  these  purposes  and  may  be  able  to  help. 

+  Maintain  attribution  The  Google  "watermark"  you  see  on  each  file  is  essential  for  informing  people  about  this  project  and  helping  them  find 
additional  materials  through  Google  Book  Search.  Please  do  not  remove  it. 

+  Keep  it  legal  Whatever  your  use,  remember  that  you  are  responsible  for  ensuring  that  what  you  are  doing  is  legal.  Do  not  assume  that  just 
because  we  believe  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  the  United  States,  that  the  work  is  also  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  other 
countries.  Whether  a  book  is  still  in  copyright  varies  from  country  to  country,  and  we  can't  offer  guidance  on  whether  any  specific  use  of 
any  specific  book  is  allowed.  Please  do  not  assume  that  a  book's  appearance  in  Google  Book  Search  means  it  can  be  used  in  any  manner 
anywhere  in  the  world.  Copyright  infringement  liability  can  be  quite  severe.

•eientific  literatore  relative  to  the  fislies  of  tbo  western  coast  m 
IKorih  America  is  of  nnusaally  recent,  as  well  as  rapid,  growth.  Noth- 
ing exact  waa  known  till  the  present  century  had  far  advanced,  for  the 
■cpOQDta  of  tbe  earlier  writers,  such  as  Veuegas,  iuteadof  enligbceuiug 
the  teader,  convey  absolutely  false  ideas  respecting  the  character  of 
the  ichthyie  faaoa.  Exclusive  of  incidental  notices,  the  beginnings  of 
■a  ichihyograpby  of  tbe  northwest  coast  were  first  published  in  1831 
(bat  iirinted  in  1811)  in  the  ^*Zoograpbia  Rosso-Asiatica"  of  Pallas; 
«  few  Kpccies  from  British  Colambia  were  described  by  Bichardson  in 
1836^  while  the  fishes  of  California  remained  absolutely  unknown  till  1 839, 
when  a  glimpse,  bat  an  entirely  inadequate  one,  was  furnished  by  Lay 
ami  Bennett  in  their  notes  and  account  of  species  collected  during  the 
Toyafie  of  tbe  EngUsb  vessel  Blossom.  A  long  silence  then  supervened, 
■ad,  wiUi  the  exceptions  thus  signalized,  and  the  addition  by  Storer 
«f  a  single  species  of  Syngnathu^  in  1846,  west-coast  iobtbyography 
comcaeooed  Id  1854  with  the  announcement,  by  Professor  Agassiz,  of 
1h^  discovery  of  tbe  remarkable  tjimily  of  Embiotocoids,  This  was 
HW lily  followed  by  naiueroiis  communications,  by  Dr.  Gibbons,  Dr. 
Otrard,  aod  Dr.  Ayres,  on  now  species  of  fisbes,  mostly  from  the  Call- 
tenian  waters,  bat  partly  from  the  Oregonian  ones.  As  early  as  1858, 
Marly  200  species  had  l>ecn  made  known,  and  the  descriptions  of  most 
von  GOll««led  ia  a  general  report  by  Dr.  Girard.  Tbe  main  features 
ti  \hm  ictbUiyology  of  the  Pacitic  slope  woro  then  already  known;  but 
BKMV  receot  laborers  have  not  only  extended  largely  oar  knowledge 
•Tepeeies,  but  added  a  number  of  entirely  new  forms,  and  thrown  much 
tl^i  oo  Uio  rolationA  of  the  fish-fauna  of  that  region  to  others. 

TIm»  (blloniog  bibliography  is  a  nearly  complete  ennmeration,  in 
cbraaoloi^oal  order,  of  the  memoirs  and  articles  of  all  kinds  that  have 
Uen  pabltsbMl  on  tbe  fishes  of  the  region  in  question.  The  cbrono- 
I  Offvler  baa  been  determined  by  tbo  date  of  reading  of  tbe  articles

[coiuiuuuicated  to  learned  societiea.  In  cases  or  questioD  of  priority, 
ihe  right  depends,  of  course,  on  the  period  of  publication ;  but  this 
^is  sometimes  with  great  ditllculty  ascertainable,  and  motives  of  con- 
^Rvenience  have  dictated  the  seqnence  adopted. 

^m    Perhaps  some  will  l>e  dispiised  to  believe  that  the  compiler  has  sinned 
^in  redundancy  rather  than  deficiency  in  this  bibliography.    The  evils 
of  the  former  are,  however,  easily  remedied,  while  those  of  the  latter 
I      must  leave  the  cousult.er  in  more  or  less  donbt.     Many  popular  works 
lave  been  catalogued  where  original  information  of  oven  slight  value 
was  contained,  and  when  such  works  were  among  the  earliest  published 
on  the  regions  in  question.     Besides  those  ennwerated,  works  on  Cali- 
fornia, too  numerous  to  mention,  contain  incidental  information  (very 
Brarely  of  any  original  value,  however)  respoctiDg  the  fishes  and  fisheries 
"of  that  State;  and  a  number  on  the  British  possessions  belong  to  the 
same  category.    Among  those  relative  to  British  Colnmbia  and  Van- 
couver's Island  worthy  to  be  mentioned,  but  not  to  be  particularized, 
are  the  volumes  of  VVm.  Carew*  IlazUtt  (1858),  J,  Desford  Pembertou 
(1860),  Duncan  George  Forbes  Macdonald  (1862),  Capt.  C.  E.  Barrett 
^Lennard  (180J),  Alexander  Rattray  (18C2),  Com.  It.  C.  Mayne  (18Cli), 
Hd.  M.  Sproat  (1808),  Francis  Poole  (1872),  and  Capt.  W,  F.  Butler 
1(1873). 

H    The  titles  of  the  Government  publications  are  taken  from  a  mann- 

^script  compilatiou  embracing  notices  of  all  the  reports  published  by 

the  General  and   State   governments   on    scientific  explorations,  and 

intended  to  be  more  particular  than   the  present  work.     They  are 

retained  with  the  bars  (   |  ),  indicating  the  distribution  on  the  title- 

*    pages  of  the  lines,  etc. 

Several  societies  have,  or  have  had,  the  custom  of  publishing  com- 

tnanications,  sometimes  of  an  elaborate  and  extended  nature,  without 

any  titles.    This  strange  and  senseless  mode  of  procedun;  seems  to 

have  originated  in  some  freak  or  affectation  of  modesty  on  the  part  of 

authors,  perhaps,  nither  than  a  deliberate  intention  to  shirk  latK>r  or 

confuse  matters.    Confusion  and  trouble  to  others  are  nevertheless  the 

Hresult  of  this  vicious  negligence,  and  a  consequence  is  nn  ignoring  of 

^^he  papers  thus  unentitled  or  an  irreconcilable  variation  of  titles  in 

^different  bibliographies.     Whether  the  cnsiom  originates  with  authors 

^pr  not,  the  assumption  of  it  Is  discreditable  to  ttao  editor  or  editors  of 

the  publications  adopting  it.    A  unmber  of  the  papera  here  recorded 

belong  to  this  category  of  the  unentitled  or  disentitled  :  the  titles  tol- 


lowin^r  preceded  by  an  asterisk  (*)  are  selected  ftom  the  remarks  pre* 
fatory  to  the  paper  in  the  proceedings,  and  those  preceded  by  u 
ctagger  (t)  have  been  composed  by  the  present  writer,  since  nothing 
intelligible  precedes  the  papers  themselves.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  the 
senseless  and  causeless  sin  In  qoestion  may  speedily  be  discontinued. 
There  is  no  reason  why  any  one  should  be  compelled  to  read  the  whole 
of  an  article  (as  is  sometimes  necessary)  to  obtain  an  idea  of  what  the 
paper  relates  to ;  and  the  '<  Catalogue  of  Scientific  Papers  (1800-1863) 
compiled  and  published  by  the  Boyal  Society  of  London"  shows  how  a 
bibliography  edited  under  the  best  auspices  may  be  involved  in  grave 
errors  by  the  negligence  adverted  to.

A  very  pale  species,  related  to  Photogenh  analoatanus  and  P,  galaclm 
ratber  than  to  tbo  species  of  ^^ IIifbopsut^\  to  which  genas  rrofessor  Co] 
referred  it.    My  specimens  are  all  very  white,  with  a  narrow  blaii 
flripe  aloug  the  caudal  peduucle,  which  sometimes  forms  a  faint  s{ 
at  base  of  caudal.    In  male  specimens,  the  snout  and  ante-dorsal  regii 
are  covered  with  small  tubercles.     In  males,  the  dorsal  fin  is  consideral 
elevated.     In  color,  the  dorsal  fin  is  largely  dusky  on  the  last  rnys,  t1 
most  of  the  fin  somewhat  creamy-tinted.    The  tip  of  the  dorsal  fin 
the  ti|)s  of  the  caudal  are  tilled  with  milk-white  pigment,  as  in 
related  species.    The  anal  fin  is  entirely  milky.    The  teeth  are  1,  4-4| 
provided  with  a  narrow  masticatorv  surface. 

Photogeitia  nireuH  is  abundant  in  the  Haluda  River.     It  was  first  di 
covered  by  Professor  Cope  in  the  Catawba  Kiver.

We  did  not  find  this  species  iu  the  Saluda,  although  Professor  V'i 
states  that  it  is  abundant  in  the  Catawba.    It  is  perhaps  possible  tbi 
Professor  Cope  mistook  our  Codoma  chloristia^  a  si>ecies  which 
bles  it  very  much,  except  iu  dentition,  for  the  true  analotttnnvK.    Tl 
*■' Cyprinella  analoHtana^^  has  been  a  stumbling-block  in  the  clas.silJcati< 
of  these  fishes,  as  to  the  masticatory  surface  of  Lttxiius  it  adds  the 
nations  of  Cyprinella,     We  are  iuclined  to  think  that  Cyprinctla  sbui 
be  restricted  to  those  species  whose  teeth  are  without  grinding  surfai 
and  are  permanently  creuate.     The  relations  of  Luxilua  analoHtttHi 
ni/ilopteruJtygalacturunyUucopuis,  and  niretur  are  much  more  intimately  wil 
the  species  of  Codoma  than  with  Lvxilus,  but  the  development  of  griui

genns,  unless  PhotognHu  be  admitted  as  a  distinct  genus.

This  is  the  common  cat-fish  of  the  Saluda^  and  is  known  aa  the  Mad 
Cat.  Adnit  specimens  reach  a  length  of  abont  18  inches,  and  bear  little 
resemblance  to  the  younjf»  from  which  the  species  was  first  described. 
The  adnlts  are  extremely  elongate,  nearly  terete  behind,  with  fiar,  ihin, 
broad  beads.  In  color,  they  are  of  a  more  or  less  clear  yellowish-green, 
more  distinctly  green  than  is  any  other  8[)ecies.  The  name  "  brunneM^* 
only  applies  well  to  the  young.  The  species  may  be  known  from  the 
related  A.  plattfcepiuilus  by  the  more  elongate  form,  the  shorter  anal  fin 
{lii  to  18  rays  instead  of  20),  and  by  the  month,  which  is  somewhat 
inferior,  the  lower  jaw  being  much  the  shorter,  while  in  A,  platycepiutlui 
the  jaws  are  equal.  The  color  is  also  different  in  the  two  species.  A, 
•pialycep}ialu»  is  yellowish,  dark  above,  and  more  or  less  marble<l  on  the 
sides  with  darker,  resembling,  in  that  respect,  A.  marmoratus.  In  A*' 
brunneugj  the  caudal  fin  is  asnally  nneqaal,  the  upper  lobe  being  thi 
longer,  and  the  radimentary  caudal  mys  are  unusually  numerous, 
specimen  nearly  a  fo<jt  long  hml  the  alimentary  canal  four  times  tbe^ 
length  of  the  body,  and  filled  with  Podoatemon  ceratophyllum.  The] 
stomach  contained  etght  adult  males  of  Codoma  pjfrrkomelafi. 

As  Profe.Hsor  Cope  couuted  17  anal  rays  iu  his  *-^ pluiycephalti$^^  it  is 
likely  that  he  had  this  species  instead  orCirard's,  which  has  pretty  i 
formly  20  or  lil  rays,     Both  AmiuriiH  brunnemf  and  plaiycephulun

This  sarpasaingly  beautiful  little  dsh  abounds  in  the  rookpoolsof  tl 
smaller  tributaries  of  the  Tugaloo.    In  Toccoa  Creek,  it  is  very  abi 
dunt,  far  outnumboriug  all  other  species.     Wo  obtained  many  si 
mens  from  the  pool  at  the  foot  of  Toccoa  Falls. 

The  life-colorH  are  as  follows:  Dark  steel-btue;  a  dark  lateral  band 
coaly  punctuhitions,  which  is  usually  distinct  ou  the  anterior  half 
body,  and  passes  through  the  eye  around  the  snout.    All  the  fins  of  j

VI.—WATBB-BASIN  OP  THE  TENNESSEE   BIVER. 

The  fish-fauua  of  the  ToDncssee  River  has  been  pretty  fally  stodied, 
especially  as  to  its  Cyprinidw,  Tliirty-seven  species  were  obtained  by 
Professor  Cope  in  the  French  Broad,  tbirty-foar  in  the  Holston,  and 
twenty-five  by  Professor  Jordan  in  tributaries  of  tbe  Clinch  and  French 
Broadly  utakiug  iu  all  some  sixty  diQerent  s|XH;ies  known  to  inhabit  the 
upper  watera  of  the  Tennessee.  In  the  lower  course  of  the  river,  thirty- 
four  species  ore  recorded  by  Professor  Agassiz  from  the  Tennessee 
River  at  Huntsville,  Ala. ;  twenty  species  were  obtained  by  the  writers 
from  the  Chickamanga  River  at  Ringgold,  Oa.,  and  seventeen  species 
from  Elk  River  at  Estill  Springs  in  Tennessee.  About  sixty-eight  spe* 
cies  are  therefore  known  to  occur  iu  the  lower  course  of  the  river.  la 
all,  eighty-two  diflereut  species  are  knoicn  to  inhabit  the  waters  of  the 
Tennessee.  To  this  number  many  species  of  large  Ushea  inhabiting  the 
Ohio  at  the  mouth  of  the  Tennessee  might}  with  certainty,  be  added; 
but  it  is  not  the  province  of  this  paper  to  record  guesses.  Forty-six 
species  are  therefore  certainly  common  to  the  upper  and  lower  courses 
of  the  Tennessee  River. 

The  species  at  present  known  iu  the  Tennessee  Basin,  only  from  the 
upi»or  conrse, — the  Clinch,  Holston,  and  French  Broad  Rivers, — are  the 
following : —

Genus  NOTHONOTUS  Agassis. 

8,  NOTHONOTUS  CA^ciTRua  {Cope)  JoT. 

Professor  Cope's  types  were  from  the  South  Fork  of  the  Camberlan* 
We  have  seen  others  from  Wliito  River  in  Indiann,  and  from  Mikboiiin| 
Uiver  and  other  streams  in  Ohio.  This  species  is  not  identical  witi 
yothonotux  macuiatus  Ag.  {Etheostoma  macutaia  Kirt.),  as  has  been  so] 
posed. 

Nothonotua  maculatw  has  a  pointed  instead  of  ronnded  snout; 
jaws  uro  equal ;  its  mouth  is  larger,  the  body  is  more  compressed,  aai 
its  dorsal  Qu  more  elevated,  the  soft  ruys  when  depressed  reaching 
the  caudal. 

Specimens  in   the  National  Museum,  collected  in  Mahoning  Kiver  bj 
Professors  Baird  and  Kirtlaud,  show  the  following  characters  : — 

Body  moderately  elongated,  very  deep,  strongly  compresAed,  tl 
depth  4^  in  length.  Head  4  in  length,  the  jaws  equal,  the  mouth  U 
Eye  4^  in  head.  Spinous  doi*sal  with  a  long  base,  larger  than  soft  doi 
sal,  the  spines  high,  the  two  fins  slightly  connected.  Soft  dorsal  eli 
vateil,  the  longest  rays  when  depressed  reaching  base  of  candal,  tl 
caudal  peduucle  very  short  and  deep.  Caudal  fin  short  and  round* 
Anal  somewhat  smaller  than  second  dorsal.  Pectonils  and  ventri 
moderate. 

Scales  not  large,  58  to  CO  in  the  lateral  line,  which  is  contiuuou«j 
cheeks  naked :  of>ercles  scaly.

l8  we  have  never  8f*en  this  species  in  life,  we  cannot  Toach  for  tfa( 
accuracy  ; — 

Back  olive;    belly  becoming  3*eJlowish.    Sides  and  back  proi 
speckled  with  earmtne-red,  the  blotches  rather  less  than  the  size  of 
eye,  not  round,  nor  arranged  in  rows. 

Dorstd  tin  with  a  dull  reil  stripe  at  base,  a  brown  interval,  then 
bright  red  stripe,  finally  margined  with  white.  Second  dorsal  di 
browu  at  base,  then  a  broad  red  stripe ;  u  broad  marginal  baod 
whifo.  Caudal  similarly  tricolor,  chiefiy  crimson,  with  a  broad  dual 
band  at  base  and  a  wide  white  band  at  the  tip.  Anal  chietiy  crimi 
with  a  terminal  band  of  white.  Pectorals  and  ventrnls  nearly  pli 
Head  olivaceous.

RECAPITULATION. 


The  following  table  sbows  the  distribution  of  the  species  in  tbe  serea 
river-basius  especially  treated  in  this  paper.  For  parposes  of  compari- 
son, I  have  iutrodnccd  the  resalts  of  Professor  Cope's  explorations  in 
tbe  Koanoke,  James,  Nense,  and  Great  Pedee,  of  Prof.  Forbes  and 
Mr.  Nelson  in  the  Illinois,  and  of  myself  and  others  in  the  Ohio.  A

thrown  on  the  laws  which  govern  the  ilistribntion  of  fresh-

|Merieji  of  ^netal  propositions,  which,  without  any  pretence  to  exhaust' 

i^wir**  or  to  originiility,  are  here  hrielly  st^ite*!.     It  may  be  preu»i»sed 

l^some  of  these  propositions  (ire  only  half  truths,  to  be  wore  coui-

I.  lo  the  ca-se  of  rivers  rtowiner  into  the  ocian,  the  character  of  the 

of  the  upper  waters,  compared  one  with  another,  bears  no,  or 

wy  liule,  relation  with  the  places  of  discharge.     In  illustration  of  this 

may  note  (a)  the  similarity  of  the  faunro  of  the  Chattahoochee  and 

Mha,  a»  compared  with  the  Chattahoochee  and  Alabama.    The 

uf  Wiwionsin  ICiver  and  of  Ued  Uiver  i»f  the  North  are  very  similar. 

n.  Rivrr-baxlns  having  a  similar  discharge  into  some  larger  river  or 

kftve  a  similarity  of  fauna,  due  to  this  fact,  and,  in  general,  other 

i^be^ug  eriual,  the  nearer  together  the  places  of  discbarg*',  it' in 

9mtfTf  the  greater  the  similarity.     The  almost  identical  faunie  of 

CatAvba  and  the  Saluda  will  illustrate  this. 

IlL  Parallel  rivers  tributary  to  the  same  stream  have,  other  things 

Mng  n^ual,  more  fn  common  than  streams  coming  from  opposite  tlirec- 

Imi4.    The  Wutuisb  and  iMIarui  have  more  in  common  than  either  has 

Ith  the  Krntncky. 

IV.  Tbt*  bigfarr  or  the  older  the  water-shed  between  two  streams,  the 
spedea  are  common  to  both.    (This  matter  needs  lurther  iuvestl-

Uijdmphlox  rubricrocens^  PhoiotjetiiH galacturxtH^  and  CatotftoinuH  nitjtica 
both  ill  tbeTeuuessee  aud  SuvantiuU,  will  illuHtrate  tbis.    Neitberof  tH 
two  lirst-named  species  are  as  yet  known  froui  any  other  river  ba«tns. 

VI.  Wben  the  watersbed  between  two  streams  is  a  Hwainpy  tiplau 
instead  of  a  mountaiurango,  the  same  sjiecies  may  bo  found  in  tbe  bea 
waters  of  both,  although  the  8j}ecie8  inhabiting  the  lower  courHes  may 
difterent.     In  case  the  one  stream  tlows  northward  and  the  other  sonl 
ward,  the  common  fauna  will  bo  nearest  like  that  of  the  northern  etrea 

Tu  Northern  Indiana,  the  same  species  are  found  in  tbe  waters  of  Sai 
Josepb''8,  Manmce,  Wabash,  and  Illinois  Rivers,  although  these  str 
discharge  their  waters  in  widely  different  directions.    The  swampy  wa 
shed  between  them  is  often  overflowed  iu  tbe  spring,  affordiug  \jq 
smaller  fishes  au  easy  means  of  migration. 

yil.  In  any  riverbasiu,  many  of  the  species  inhabiting  small  str< 
are  different  from  those  occurring  in  tbe  river-channels.    Among  t 
brook  species  may  be  mentioned  Eucalia  incomiaus^  I'cteilichthjfn  spto(< 
bilU^  JiCHOtis   lythrochloris^   Xenisma   HteUifcrum^  Salrclinus  fontinal 
Erivymhn  htteoata^   SemoUlua   corporalia^   Chrosomua  crythtogasttTy 
species  qX  Ilkimrhthyti^  etc.    Of  channel  8\)ec\e8f  Jlaphifii>notv«^  HyofUm^ 
Dorosoma^  Poinolobus,  Roccvn  chryttaps^  all  tbe  '^Buflalo-flsbes",  and  tb 
larger  (St'fMnWfc,  Ichtha'hims  punctattigj   PvlodlvklhyH  olitarU^  Amiur 
uigricansy  and  the  like,  will  serve  as  examples. 

VIII.  Many  species  inhabiting  tbe  upper  course  of  a  stream  arc  difTer^ 
ent  from  those  of  tbe  lower.  This  subject  has  l)een  ably  discussed  by 
I'rofesser  Oojk?,  but  further  investigations,  especially  of  the  rivers  of  the 
Southern  States,  are  very  desirable. 

IX.  This  difference  betwet^n  the  upper  fauna  and  the  lower  is  due 
difference's  in  tbe  character  of  (he  river  itself,  such  lis  climate,  eonditi 
of  water,  character  of  river-bed,  supply  of  food,  etc. 

X.  Ilence,  if  in  the  same  river  basin  there  are  two  streams  tlowing 
into  a  larger  stream,  the  one  near  its  source,  tbe  other  near  its  moutl 
if  the  two  streams  are  similar  in  all  known  physical  respects,  The' 
faunie  will  bo  simil.tr,  and  if  dissimilar,  they  will  huve  diQ'erent  fuun 
Tbe  general  identity  of  tbe  faunee  of  Elk  River  and  PowelPs  Hi 
may  be  noticed  iu  this  coniieutiou. 

XI.  S»)me  8i>e*nes  of  (Ishes  are  contiutMl  strictly  to  a  single  riverbasi 
while  other  species,  with  apparently  no  better  mejins  of  diOusiou  or 
defense,  are  widely  distributed,  inhabiting  many  rivers.  In  illast-nitl 
of  this,  the  limited  ruugo  of  each  of  tbe  species  of  Corloma  way  be  oo

XIL  In  any  river-baRiu,  the  most  abundant  species  (of  suiall  Hfthes) 
UiMlly  (a)  thoiiif^  peculiar  to  it,  or  {b)  those  of  the  w  idest  distribution. 
Hhtstrution  of  this,  we  tuny  notice  the  abundauco  of  Codvma  ptjrrho- 
Hiftd  yoiropia  photogeniit  in  the  Sauti'e;  of  Codoma  fttigmatura  uud 
M  eomutuJi  in  the  Alabiitna ;  of  Codoma  eurystoma  aud  Ceratichthyii 
Haimt  in  the  Cliattahoorhcej  of  Codoma  jrirnura  and  Kotemigonus 
mua  in  the  Ocmulgee.  To  thi»  rale,  however,  there  are  many 
ttioUA  and  modifications. 
XJU.  In  general,  tbo  further  south  any  river-basin  lies,  the  more 
art  peculiar  to  it,  and  the  greater  the  differences  betwt*eu  its 
and  that  of  the  neighboring  streams.  In  illustration  of  this,  the 
(ittmoces  existing  between  the  faunie  of  the  Alabama  and  Chatta- 
Wodiee  may  be  oompured  with  those  between  the  fauuto  of  the  Susque- 
huua  and  Delaware-.  Twelve  genera  are  known  to  be  common  to  the 
Itetaltooobee  aud  Alabama,  and  twenty-three  to  the  SuHquehaunaand 
0»Uvart>.  Id  the  Southern  streams,  the  process  of  evolution  of  specific 
fhKa  miemB  to  have  gone  on  more  rapidly.  This  matter,  however, 
further  investigation. 
.  Rpeciej^  of  the  widest  distribution  often  have  breaks  in  their 
aogie  which  cannot  be  accounted  for  by  any  facta  now  in  our  possea- 
tM.  XjusHum  comnttu^  so  abuudant  in  all  the  waters  of  the  North  and 
VTfrM.  doen  not  occur,  so  far  as  is  known,  in  any  of  the  rivers  between 
AftKensA  and  the  Alabama,  in  both  of  which  streams  it  is  ubundauL 
TtrioQfl  ajtecies  range  over  several  river  basins  and  then  cease  abruptly. 
isMmu  brunneuit  is  abundant  from  the  Sautee  to  theOhattahoocheo,  iu 
hiitvr  river  the  most  abuudant  f«x>d-lish,  while  iu  the  very  next  river- 
in,  the  Alabauiu,  it  is  unknown.

seutativej*.    TIki  casu  of  Lvxilva  cornntns  will  agaiii  illuHtrutf. 

XVII.  Certain  species  have  been  known  to  extend  their  geo^apbical 
range  Hince  the  otieiiin^  of  the  cuiiala.    Such  are  more  eH|>eciaIly  thi 
mifjrratory  Kpe^iea  of  probably  marine  origin,  as  Doronoma  hrterun 
Pomohibws  chrysochlori^j  and  Anguilla  mtlgarin.    These  species  nn*  n< 
abundant  in  Lake  Michigan  and  Lake  Krie.  although  formerly  unknot 
there.     The  i*ange  of  certain  Percidir  and  Ccntrarchititt  baa  undoubtedlj 
been  exteuded  by  the  same  tueaus. 

Will.  The  ctiunicteristically  American  forms  of  fishes  are,  geueralli 
spcakin;^,  rare  or  absent  iu  the  waters  of  New  Kngland  and  of  ihi 
I*aci(1c  slope.  This  fact  has  heeu  well  stuted  by  Trofessor  At^assiz,  \rh< 
culled  Nesv  Eaglaud  "a  zoological  inland ^. 

About  105  geuera  of  fresh-water  fishea  occur  iu  the  waters  of  tU4 
United  States  cast  of  the  Mississippi  Itiver.  iM'  these,  about  7G  do  m 
occur  in  New  England  (exclusive  of  Lake  Ghampluiu,  the  fauna 
which  is  neurly  i<Ientical  with  that  of  Lake  Ontario.)  Of  these  .'iO  oi 
lewer  genera  oceurrint;  in  New  England,  all  but  *S'«/rc/tHH*,  Comjom 
Ehox^  Semotiiun^  HhinulUhyH,  and  possibly  Amiurua^  nre  rcpre>cuti*d  b] 
a  single  species  each.  From  30  to  35  genera  ocour  in  the  waters  pf  tb4 
Pacitic  slope. 

XIX.  The  larger  the  river-baain,  the  greater  its  rnriety  of  forms,  botl 
;;enera  and  species.  In  the  little  White  Itiver  at  IndiunaiKTlis,  belouginj 
to  the  Mississippi  basin,  70  species,  represeutiuf;  -18  genera,  arc  kno^ 
to  occur — twice  as  many  aa  inhabit  all  the  rivet's  of  New  England. 

XX.  Other  things  being  equal,  a  river  whoso  course  liea  in  a  regi< 
of  undisturbed  stratifie*!  rocks  or  of  glacial  drift  rx)ntaina  moat  genei 
aud  species. 

XXI.  Conversely,  rivers  iu  regions  of  igneous  or  metamorphic  rock 
mtaiu  fewest  species. 

XXII.  Hource^  of  streams  on  opposite  sides  of  ahigb  watershed  oi 
have  species  in  common  which  do  not  occur  in  tlie  lower  conrses  of  tiht 

ime  rivers.     The  distribution  of  several  mountain  species,  as  Saivttu 
fnnUnaliM  and  Hydrophlox  mhricroccu*^  will  exemplify  this. 

XXIII.  Certain  species  have  a  compact  geographicud  range,  occuninj 
in  all  the  rivers  within  this  range,  without  ai>parcnt  regard  to  the  dii 
tton  of  their  tiow.    Snch  are  Lcpiapomun  oimcums  iu  the  Alabama^

at  leant  aa  far  as  the  commencement  of  the  anal,  its  rays  20  to

A*  the  rhfef  purpose  of  this  paper  is  to  ascertain  and  make  known 
proper  nomenclatare  of  the  valid  genera  and  species  of  Catosiomifiaiy 
Iikall  omit  further  discussion  of  family  and  snbfamily  charncterB,  and 
at  onco  to  a  catalogue  of  described  species,  arranged  in  cbrono- 
ofder,  with  the  date  and  my  identification  of  each  species  opp«>- 
\X»  name.  As  is  the  case  in  nearly  every  gronp  of  American  fishes, 
nnmber  of  nominal  species  is  aboat  three  times  the  number  realty 
ig.  IC  will  be  QOticcd  that  the  number  of  species  which  1  have 
Icted  i«  in  most  of  the  Catostomoid  genera  fewer  than  has  been 
by  previons  writers.  This  seems  to  me  to  result  not  from  any 
theories  aa  to  what  constitutes  a  species,  but  from  the  fact  that  I 
bare  bad  a  greater  range  of  specimens  of  most  forms  than  any  previous 
writer  \xn%  bad.  I  am  confldent  that  in  the  presence  of  a  still  greater 
aHOQDt  of  roatcrinl,  the  characters  of  several  other  species  will  be  found 
la  velt  away.  To  indicate  which  these  species  are,  in  default  of  such 
aK&eriail,  woald,  however,  be  an  unprofitable  task.  In  this  group,  as  in 
ijr  others,  the  truth  well  stated  by  Dr.  Cones*  becomes  apparent: — 
^Wecaa  only  predicate  and  define  species  at  all  from  the  mere  ctr- 
»ce  of  misting  Unkg^  *  Species  *  are  the  twigs  of  a  tree  separated 
the  parent  ateaa.  We  name  and  arrange  them  arbitrarily,  in  de- 
of  a  means  of  reconstructing  the  whole  tree  according  to  Nature's

Suckera  like  Mtfxo8t4»ma  in  every  respect  excepting  the  structtire  0 
tbo  mouth  and  o[>ercula.  Head  Khortish,  conical,  with  leugtbeued  snoat 
its  length  4^  to  5  times  in  that  of  the  body,  the  opercnlor  region  bein 
retluccd,aotbat  the  eye  is  well  backwards:  suborbital  bonefl  narrow:  ft 
tanello  large,  widely  open.  Mouth  large,  singular  in  stmctore,  inferi 
the  upper  lip  not  protractile,  greatly  prolonged,  closely  plicate.  Low* 
lip  much  reduced,  tlivided  into  two  distinct  elongate  lobe^,  which 
weekly  papillose.  The  split  between  these  lobes  extends  backwards  t 
the  edge  of  the  deuiary  bones,  which  are  provided  with  a  rather  ha 
horny  plate,  as  in  Pantosteus,  The  lower  lip  is  entirely  separated  I 
tbo  upper  at  the  angles  by  a  deep  fissure.  Tho  skin  of  the  cbee' 
fonns  a  w»rt  of  cloak  over  this  fissure,  the  crease  separating  this  ski 
from  the  month  extending  up  on  the  sides  of  the  mozzle.  The 
between  the  lips  extends  down  on  the  under  side  of  the  head.  Sy« 
ot  mnciferons  tubes  well  developed. 

Pbarynpeal  bones  not  dissimilar  from  the  usual  typo  in  Myjtyjttn

Only  three  specimens  of  this  siugalar  Sucker  are  yet  kaown.  Two  ni 
these  were  taken  by  Professor  Braytou  and  myself  in  the  Ghickamanga 
Biver  at  Kiu{;goId,  Catoosa  Ounnty,  Georgia,  and  the  other  in  ElkBirer 
near  Estill  Springs,  Tennessee.  In  both  these  streams,  the  species  wu 
well  known  to  the  lishermen,  who  s»id  that  it  is  one  of  the  most  aban* 
dant  si>ecies  iu  those  waters,  and  one  of  the  most  highly  valued  for  food. 
In  the  Ghickamanga,  it  is  known  as  the  Hare-lip  or  Split-mouth  Sooker 
None  of  the  s[>ccimens  taken  were  mature,  the  largest  being  but  ten 
inches  long,  so  that  its  maximnm  size  cannot  be  given. 

Since  the  above  was  written,  a  fine  large  specimen  has  been  sent  tome 
by  J.  H.  Klippart,  Es(j.,  of  the  Ohio  Fish  Commission.    It  was  taken  ia 
Scioto  liiver  near  Columbus,  in  April,  1878.    Mr.  Klippart  iuforms  me 
that  the  species  is  well  known  to  the  Scioto  fishermen,  who  call  it  Mas 
Sucker,  us  it  runs  up  the  river  in  May.    That  so  strongly  marked  a  sp^ 
cies  has  so  long  escaped  the  utteutiou  of  ichthyologists  in  the  State  «=>' 
Ohio  is  sin<{ular.

abniptiy  truncate.  The  second  tooth  is  notably  shorter  and  thicker, 
■ocb  likTH^r,  and  rouuded  on  top,  the  boily  of  the  tooth  serving  as  a  pe- 
iuele  for  the  swollen  grinding  surface.  The  third  tooth  is  ntill  shorter 
Bd  BimOar  in  form.  The  fourth  tooth  is  similar  to  the  first,  beiug  much 
Ugbcr  thao  the  second  and  third,  and  tiat  ou  top.  The  others  seem  to 
h  tiTvgularly  alteruated  or  arranged  in  pairs,  a  loug  one  and  a  short

uaiue  MojfOKtoma  from  the  *'  Ketl  Horse  **  lo  the  *'Chab  Sucker"  group. 
Bafinesque's  description,  howerer,  renders  it  evident  that  his  fish  wj 
one  of  the  Red  Horse  kind;  and  as  Moxostoma  is  the  first  generic  Dam< 
applied  to  H]>ecie8  of  t)iat  group,  it  must  be  retained  in  spite  of  tbi 
lncoa)pl4Ateue6a  of  the  original  diagnosis.

A  name  proposed  for  a  group  of  this  kind,  in  the  opinion  of  tbe 
enc  writer,  shonld  not  be  set  aside,  but  should  be  retained  for  some  oi

adopts  such  a  genus,  he  shall  have  the  right  to  select  any  of  the  specie 
as  its  type,  and  the  name  should  bo  considered  thereafter  as  applyini 
to  such  typical  species  only,  not  to  be  revived  in  case  such  typical  specii 
be  afterwards  found  to  have  had  a  prior  generic  name.  In  case  no  sm 
type  has  been  selected  by  any  author,  then  the  "  principle  of  exclnsion' 
should  be  applied,  and  the  name  be  retained  for  such  species  as  may

**  It  is  difiicult  to  assign  a  name  to  this  genns.    Rafinesquo  proposes  It  npon  nol

purged  it  of  these  elements,  but  did  not  express  its  essential  character,  apparently  nlf! 
ing  on  the  plicate  lips.    I  have  taken  the  older  name,  leaving  for  others  the

Ptyciiostomus  Cope,  1870.—"  The  development  of  the  lips  furnish  important  dli^ 
nostic  indicatious  in  this  genus.  In  those  most  nearly  allied  to  Moxostoma, the  i 
lip  rcHcmblea  that  of  that  genus  in  being  narrower  and  deeply  incised,  emargimll 
posteriorly  forming  a  figure  V  with  the  ax>ex  forwards,  at  the  same  time  the 
lip  is  very  thin  and  often  narrow.  Such  species  are  shorter,  and  tend  to  a  greatd^ 
velopment  of  dorsal  fin.  Others  of  this  type  arc  more  elongate.  Some  species  of  bott  \ 
are  distinguished  by  their  very  prominent  conic  mnzzle  and  minute,  inferior  montl,  i 
rcuiiniliug  one  uf  the  Carpiodes.  In  oue  species  the  lips  are  papillose  instead  of  plicate. 
In  some  specicH,  the  month  is  very  projectile,  in  others  scarcely  so  at  all.

eaub  of  nearly  twelve  pounds  weight,  in  tbe  Fox  River  in  Wisconsin. 

In  the  Ohio  Eiver  and  its  Iributariea,  and  in  the  rivers  of  tbe  Scut 
west  geueraUy,  tbe  var.  duqutsnii  is  tbe  prevailing  form.  This  variety 
is  more  delicately  colored  than  the  other,  the  silvery  lustre  of  tbe  scalf 
is  more  strongly  marked,  and  the  red  of  tbe  fins  is  rather  more  vivi 
This  form,  too,  is  valued  soiuewbac  as  a  food-rtsh,  although  tbe  fles' 
like  that  of  all  the  Suckers,  is  comparatively  coarse,  tasteless,  aud  full  i 
bones.  The  variety  dvque^nei  is  everywhere  known  by  the  curious 
nacular  name  of  **Bed  Horse",  a  name  possibly  to  be  accounted  for  b; 
tbe  color  of  the  f^ns  aud  the  form  of  the  head.  This  variety  also  grow 
to  a  large  size. 

The  variety  lackrymale  I  only  kuow  from  specimens  obtained  in  Etc 
wab  Kiver,  Georgia,  iu  company  with  the  variety  <iuqu€snei,     Nothi 
distinctive  was  noticed  iu  regard  to  its  habits. 

The  lied  Horse  prefer  rather  deep,  clear  water,  seldom  ascending  ver 
small  streams,  and  then  chiefly  in  tbe  spawuiug  seasou — iu  May — a 
which  time  they  may  be  fouud  in  great  abuudauce  iu  any  rapid  of 
river  or  a  creek,  or  below  a  mill-pond.  They  are  generally  caught  b 
nets,  traps,  or  snares,  but  will  frequeutly  bite  at  ft  hook  baited  with 
wonn. 

In  tbe  confinement  of  au  aquarium,  tbe  Ited  Horse  are  not  very  hardj 
Foul  water  kills  them  at  once. 

iSynonymA. — Tbe  earliest  name  given  to  a  Bed  Horse  is  that  of  C< 
[u«  macroIepUhlus  Le  Sueur.  The  specilic  uauie  macrolepviotun  qif 
therefore  be  retained  for  this  species.  Tbe  specilic  name  oneida^  glv 
by  DeKay  to  an  individual  from  Oneida  Lake,  Kew  York,  doubU« 
belongs  here,  as  the  var.  macrol^idvittm  is  the  only  member  of 
genus  known  to  inhabit  that  part  of  New  York,  aud  there  are  uosorioi 
discrepancies  iu  tbe  rather  poor  description. 

Pti/ciu>iitomu8  rohusluM  Cope  may  possibly  be  diiferent;  but  as  its  d 
scriber  has  failed  to  note  any  distinctive  chanicters  which  I  eonsidi 
likely  lo  be  permanent,  I  am  cx>nipelled  to  refer  it  here.  It  la  from  Y»

rinijt  this  ft|H')Cie«,  ProressorCopo  remarks,  ^'  This  species  is  quite  near  the 
lut  {P.  erythrvniA)  ariil  may  at  some  future  time  be  shown  to  be  a  local 
nrietj  of  it,  but  in  this  caso  P.  maeroltpidotutf  must  follow  also." 

Tbft  eynouyms  of  var.  tluqiiesnei  may  now  be  noticed.    Of  these, 

ihr  doly  odd  of  importance  is  that  of  Catoatomua  erythrurus  UafiueHqne, 

nooiUy  rcoogDized  by  Professor  Cope  as  a  species  distiuct  from  P. 

infiwmitf. 

Tbt!  presetice  of  tea  ventral  rays  in  duqua/nii^  as  conti'asted  with  nine 

tnil  r.iys  in  eryHiruntSy  is  the  chief  point  on  which  Professor  Co[»e 

to  tliHtiugoish  the  two  species.     He  also  ttnds  the  month  rather 

inferior  in  duquesHti,  and  the  scales  rather  smaller,  7-4^7,  instead 

■r  5-4:2-4. 

lo  reganl  to  the  number  of  ventral  rays,  my  experience  is  that  in  every 

uf  the  geoDS  the  normal  number  is   ni/i'?,  but  that  ten-rayed 

iilottin  occur  iu  tht*  proportion  of  about  one  in  tweuty  in  any  of  the 

E«.     I  have  [weu  specimous  of  duqucimii  with  nine  rays  on  one  side 

ten  OD  the  other.    1  have  therefore  discarded  all  consideration  of 

ber  of  ventral  rays  as  a  specific  character.    In  regard  to  the 

of  acalett  in  the  lateral  line,  the  usual  number  iu  most  of  the 

i^ecivii  Ls  43  to  44;  but  of  every  species  iu  which  I  have  bcH>n  enabled 

loesamiDu  a  large  series  of  individuals,  I  have  found  a  range  extend- 

iDK  frtioi  42  to  40.    I  have  seen  tenrayed  specimens  of  duquennci  with 

.  and  nine-rayed  erythruri  with  small  ones.    Within  the  limit 

.  Ui*^reroro  do  not  consider  the  number  of  scales  us  a  pcrma- 

311  specific  character.    The  greater  prominence  of  the  muzzle  in  dnqiuft- 

AAobAerved  by  Professor  Cot>e,  is  perhaps  accidental  or  individual. 

At  3"  'N,  It  is  tOi^  nncertuiu  a  feature  to  base  a  species  on. 

Iji  't«  NKf^fiuru^  of  HaQuesqne  is,  as  1  have  elsewhere  shown, 

pmbobly  a  yoang  Ued  Morse,  with  a  dusky-shaded  dorsal  and  caudal,

HiBrTAT. — Ohio  Valley  and  Great  Lakra. 

This  species,  first  described  by  Rafioesqae  in  1820,  has  been  entirely 

lost  sight  of  by  succeeding  writers,  and  I,  doubting  the  existence  in  the 
Ohio  Biver  of  a  species  characterized  by  the  marked  inequality  of  the 
caudal  lobes,  hare  hitherto  followed  Dr.  Kirtland  in  using  the  name 
tnumra  for  the  fish  recently  named  collapsus  by  Professor  Cope.  Some 
qifcimens  lately  examined  by  me  from  the  Ohio  Biver  hare  shown  the 
existence  of  a  fish  corresponding  rery  closely  to  Bafinesque's  account, 
ud  which  really  has  the  inequality  of  the  caudal  fin,  on  which  be  lays 
Mich  emphasis,  and  which  suggested  the  name  anisurua  (unequal-tail). 
This  fish  appears  to  be  the  same  as  that  to  which  Professor  Cope  has 
giren  the  name  of  hrevicepn.  Professor  Cope  had,  howerer,  but  a  single 
speeimen,  in  poor  condition,  and  did  not  notice  the  falcation  of  the 
candal,  or,  more  likely,  that  fin  was  not  preserred  iutact.  I  hare,  some 
time  since,  examined  Professor  Cope's  type,  preserre<l  in  the  Museum 
of  the  Academy  of  Natural  Sciences,  at  Philadelphia,  and  believe  it  to 
be  identical  with  3f.  anisura  Baf.  The  form  of  the  head  and  foody  and 
<tf  the  mouth  are  similar  in  the  two,  and  the  dorsal  in  both  is  simi- 
lirly  falcate. 

This  8i>ecies  resembles  aureolum  in  erery  respect,  except  that  the 
dorsal  fin  is  shorter,  and  derated  or  falcate  in  front,  the  free  border 
being  deeply  incised,  and  that  the  candal  tin  is  similarly  elongated,  the 
apper  lobe  being  much  the  longer  and  greatly  attenuated. 

The  following  are  the  measurements  of  three  specimens :  10,788,  from 
Sandosky,  and  12,207  and  12,294  from  Cincinnati.  The  fractions  indi- 
cate percentage  of  the  length  to  the  base  of  the  caudal : —

It  is  perhaps  barely  possible  that  this  fish  is  the  male  of  aureolwm 
at  a  certain  age,  bat  it  seems  to  me  decidedly  improbable.  The  resem- 
blance between  the  two  is,  however,  very  strong,  and,  except  for  Uio 
fins,  they  eonld  hardly  be  distingnished.

My  specimens  do  not  agree  very  well  with  I^rofessor  Coi>e's  dc^ticrij

In  color,  this  species  is  smoky  above,  the  sides  silvery,  the  lower  fins

Professor  Cope  says  that  *^  they  attain  one  foot  in  length,  and  do  not 
eieeed  one  poand  iu  weight''.  I  have  specimens  a  foot  and  a  half  long 
lad  of  three  pounds  or  more  weight. 

In  the  Ocmulgee,  the  species  is  next  to  M.  cervtnum  the  most  abandant, 
lad  is  called  the  White  Mullet,  or  Sacker.  Professor  Cope  found  it 
futeabaudant  in  the  Catawba  and  the  Yadkin  Rivers,  where  it  "is 
Ufbly  valued  by  the  inhabitants  as  an  article  of  food.  It  is  regarded 
M  the  best  of  the  Catostomi  for  that  purpose.  It  is  less  frequently 
eugbt  on  the  hook  than  some  other  species,  but  in  the  autumn,  they 
eone  upon  the  weirs  in  considerable  numbers.  The  fishermen  call  it 
the 'Shiner'.''

This  protean  species  is,  uext  to  Catontomus  teresy  the  most  abandq 
and  thn  most  widely  diffused  of  our  species  of  Suckers.  It  occurs 
every  stream  from  Maine  to  Texas,  aad  thrives  in  alt  sorts  of  wata 
from  the  Great  Lakes  to  the  smallest  poods  and  brooks.  Its  variatiq 
in  color  and  form  are  remarkable;  bar. after  the  elimination  of  tho 
which  are  known  to  be  due  to  difl'ereuces  of  sex,  age,  and  surroundin 
i  find  nothing  left  on  which  a  difference  of  species  or  even  a  variei 
-differenoc  may  be  based.  I  therefore  nnite  all  the  nominal  apeci 
this  genurt,  with  a  single  exception,  under  the  oldest  specific  namei 
plied  to  any  of  them,  succtt^  of  Lac6p6de. 

The  name  «ucef/a  has  been  passeclfrom  nuthortoauthorforalongtin 
all  the  descriptions  being  based  on  the  notes  of  Bosc  and  the  accon 
given  by  Lacepfede,  no  one  seeming  to  have  any  clwir  idea  of  what 
-original  si>ecies  was.  The  reasons  for  identifying  aucetta  with  Mong 
have  been  alreudy  given. 

The  name  Bucetia  was  spoiled  mceti  by  Valeucieoues.  I  see  no  reaoi 
for  this  change.  The  derivation  of  th*^  word  is  from  the  Fn»nrh  jiw<k 
A  sucker;  and  sucetta  is  an  agraeable  latiuizatioQ  of  the  tiarbanms  wot 
The  identity  of  the  nominal  species  ohlonguHj  gihbonvSj  tuhrrculatuSf  rif 
liM,  effOf>u«,efoit^aHw,  and  elegana  vcas  coDclusively  shown  by  Profeafl 
Agassis.  The/a«nofan'>r  of  RaBueHqiio,  as  I  have  shown,  is  probal) 
tbis  species,  which  BaQuesque  could  hardly  have  overlooked. 


B*t(  ani4urtt9^  coDsidered  by  bitn  as  the  Western  rep- 
RMOtative  of  ohlo^gus^  mast  belong  bere.  Professor  Agassiz*s  tenuis 
ftwi  Mobile  ia  not  described ;  but  as  ttucetta  occurs  abundantly  in  Abk- 
||iBa,  it  {a  safe  to  presuiui^  tbeir  identity.  The  type  ol*  Moxontoma  da- 
m^pHR^  Girard  is  uow  lost.  Botb  figure  und  descriptiou  i>oiut  to  the 
ywtmg  of  tmeeita.  The  ti^'ure  represents  the  scales  rather  smaller  than 
'  HBtl,  bat  it  may  not  be  correct.  The  types  of  Moxotttmna  kennerltfi 
and  o(  Moxottoma  campbcUi  Girard,  from  Texas,  have  also  disap- 
;  bat  iixii^y  too  seem  to  have  been  based  on  the  young  of  the 
It  species,  nod  as  $ucetta  certainly  occurs  in  Texas,  these  nominal 
mast  fall  into  the  synonymy. 
Cbob  8ncker  is  one  of  the  smallest  species,  rarely  reaching  a 
of  more  than  a  foot.  It  is  tenacious  of  life,  and  bites  readily  at 
II  book,  bot  is  not  mnch  valued  for  food.  The  young  are  rather 
(lie  black  lateral  band  being  sometimes  very  distinct.  Jn 
raqoariDiD,  they  act  as  scavengers.  The  adult  fishes,  especially  the 
are  very  dusky  in  color,  and  the  males  in  spring  are  provided 
rth  tiiree  Urge  tubercles  arranged  in  a  triangle  on  each  side  of  the  head. 
11»tes  of  the  adalts  are  nsunlly  black,  sometimes  tinged  with  red.

as  footl,  but  is  ofton  c^tugbt  by  bnys  with  a  spear  or  nnnre.  In  coinpa]i.r 
with  other  speoiefl  of  Catostomtta  ixu*X  Mpsoatoina^  it  ascends  all  onr  West- 
ern streams  in  April  for  the  purpose  of  depositing  its  spawn. 

The  Soatbern  form,  which  I  have  desiguated  as  var.  etouranusy  is  uioro 
intensely  colored  and  diflers  in  some  minor  respects.     It  freqnenis, 
great  abnndnnce,  the  clear  tributaries  of  the  Etowah,  Oostananla,  aa 
Coosa  Rivers,  in  company  with  Potaiuocothat  mcriilionaliM  (jop/w-Tu*),  a 
species  to  which  the  young  of  the  Caioslomva  bears  much  reseuiblauoe 
as  seen  iu  the  water. 

The  synonymy  of  this  species  has  been  well  worket?  out  by  Professor 
Agassiz.  The  variutions  in  age  and  appeaninee  have  given  rise  to  a 
number  of  nominal  species,  most  of  which  have,  however,  already  beetl 
disposed  of.  The  oldest  ei>eciftc  name,  nit/ricanjty  htu*  been  tlie  one  niostr 
generally  employed.  The  generic  name  used  de|»eud8  ou  whether  wo 
consider  this  species  geuerically  distinct  from  the  type  of  Cntostomiut  o 
not.  It  would  seem — if  we  may  so  speak — as  if  Nature  had  intended 
Ilt/pentclium  for  a  distinct  genns,  but  not  being  an  ex|>ert  iu  geuerie 
characters,  had  failed  to  provide  it  with  any  which  can  stand  our  test 
The  name  Et/hmyzoii,  being  a  simple  synonym  of  HjjpertteUumy  of  cou 
cannot  be  used.  Katinesquc'S  account  is  much  inferior  to  that  of  Pro*' 
fessor  Agassiz,  and  the  fit;uro  given  by  him  is  oue  of  the  worst  evef 
publishiHl,  still  his  typical  species  is  readily  identifiable,  and  hts  name 
for  it  cannot  be  set  aside.

Only  the  origiDal  type  of  this  species  is  known.  It  is  an  adult  spe- 
00160,  well  preserved.  Although  this  species  seems  closely  related  to 
C.  oeeidentalie,  I  am  disposed  to  consider  it  distinct,  as  the  mouth  is 
ttoubly  larger  than  in  any  oocidentalis  which  I  have  seen.  The  exami- 
lation  of  a  large  series  of  specimens  may,  however,  render  it  necessary 
to  unite  them.

This  Bpecies  was  descrit>e<]  almost  simultaneously  uo<ler  the 
name  by  Dr.  Ayres  aud  Profe^ssor  Agassiz.  Siuce  then  it  has  been  U 
uotioed  by  ichthyologists,  and  its  distribatiou  has  rumaJDed  uncei 
The  few  specimens  in  the  National  Mnsetim  indicate,  however,  a 
distribution.  I  have  here  united  Catostomug  bernardini  Oirard  tq 
occidentali9.  The  siugle  specimen  made  the  tyi>e  ot  C.  berttardini  is  U 
so  that  wu  can  probably  never  know  exactly  for  what  the  author 
tended  the  name.  The  size  of  the  dorsal  and  ihe  form  of  the  moutli 
given  in  Gii-ard's  figure  indicate  a  species  of  CatOHtomuH  rather  t 
PanlosieuH^  and  as  I  am  uuable  to  distinguish  it  from  V.  occidenUUk 
let  it  fall  into  the  synonymy.  The  scales  of  C,  bernardini  v^  fig% 
seem,  liowever,  smaller  than  usual  in  C.  ocddenttUia. 

V.  occidentaliM  is  apparently  related  to  C.  f^rvs.  hut  ia  distiugoii 
by  the  f(»rm  of  month  and  by  the  souiewhat  smaller  scales.  The  spec 
is  '*  bronght  to  the  market  in  San  Francisco,  and  is  said  to  be  qii 
common  in  the  Sacramento  and  San  Joaqnin  Bivers." — (Gibabd.)

Habitat. — lliwiasippi  Valleyi  in  all  tho  larj;er  streaoiB. 

This  species  is  fonnd  in  some  abundanco  in  the  larger  streams.  Al 
the  Falls  of  the  Ohio,  it  is  taken  in  nets,  and  meets  a  ready  sale.  It 
however,  moch  less  abnndant  than  the  Bnffalo  fishes  are.  From  th 
general  use  of  the  name  *'  Missoari  Sucker  ^  its  abundance  in  the  State 
of  Missoari  may  bo  inferred;  but,  as  to  the  facts  in  the  case,  I  am  not 
informed.  This  fish  is  as  shari)ly  distinguished  from  the  other  Suckers  in 
its  appearance  as  in  its  auaiomy.  The  dusky  colors  and  the  amall  use 
of  the  head  attract  attention  at  once. 

But  oue  s^iecies  is  yet  knoirn.  That  being  the  case,  the  synonymy  of 
the  8i>ecieB  needs  uo  discussion,  its  oldest  name  being  the  one  in  com- 
mon ose.

1855.  Since  then  it  baa  been  generally  received  by  authors  auder  tbi 
uuiiie  uaine  aud  with  the  same  limits.  It  waa  first  briefly  outlined  bj 
KiiUueHcjue  iu  1820  under  the  uamo  of  CarpiodeSf  then  afterwards  b] 
Valenciennes  defined  uiofe  fully  uudertbe  name  of  Schroynathun.  Bot 
Carpiodea  and  SclerognaihiiH  haviug  the  snmetypic;d  species  {Catoa.t4>m\ 
cifpriuun  Le  Suuur),  the  older  aud  preferable  name,  Carpiode^j  is  the  ou| 
tu  bu  adopted. 

The  rouoguition  of  species  in  this  genns  is  a  matter  of  cxtromo 
calty,  from  their  grout  resemblance  to  each  other  in  color,  size,  foi 
and  general  appearance.    Our  knowledge  of  the  Hpecies  thus  far  hi 
been  almost  entirely  due  to  the  labors  of  Professor  Cope  (A  Partial  Sj 
or»si8  of  the  Fishes  of  ^orth  Carolina  "^  Proc.  Am.  Philos.  Soc.  Phil 
]S70).    I  have  myself  examined  siK'cimens  agreeing  with  each  of  Pj 
fesBor  Cope'S  descriptions,  aud,  with  two  exception  {Carpiodet  Mdene 
Varpiodejt  grayi)^  I  am  disposed  to  admit  all  his  species.    It  is  true,  hoi 
over,  tl»at  iu  every  large  collection  of  Carpiodcs  there  are  specimei 
disagreeing  more  or  less  from  the  typical  forms  of  each  species,  aiu 
which  should,  in  cousistenoy,  be  de&cribeil  as  distinct  species,  or 
the  species  which  they  appear  to  connect  should  be  united.    I  have  d< 
however,  examiucd  a  sufficiently  full  series  of  Carpiodcs  to  bo  pi 
pared  to  accept  either  of  these  alternatives,     i  have,  therefore,  takei 
Professor  Copers  analysis  of  the  species,  aud  added  to  it  SDch  addi* 
tional  feutares  as  1  have  been  able  to  observe,  and  1  give  the  whole 
onr  best  Ivuowledge  at  present  on  the  subject,  leaving  for  future  Btadj 
the  consideration  of  the  degree  of  relationship  existing  between  ei/prinus^ 
veli/er,  and  thompsonu    The  other  four  species,  mrpiOf  bi&on,  cutinat 
rinujij  and  difformin^  seem  to  be  manifestly  distiuct,  unless  difformU 
a  monstrous  form  of  outisanHcrinus. 

S|>ectes  of  this  genus  are  fonnd  iu  all  the  fresh  waters  of  the  tJait 
Slates  east  of  the  ItocUy  Mountains.    They  seldom  ascend  the  smal 
streams,  ntid  are  lakiMi  by  means  of  nuts  Irom  the  larger  rivers  ai 
lakes.    From  their  resomUlauce  in  fonn  to  the  European  Carp  {C}ipri\ 
carj)fo),  they  are  popnlarly  known  as  '^Carp^.    This  resemblance  baa 

iggestetl  the  name  of  tlie  genus  and  of  two  of  its  species.    As  food< 
fishes  thoy  are  rather  indillercnt,  the  Uesh  being  rather  coarse  and  tlavoi

In  general  appearance,  the  Bpccies  of  Bubalicktkys  bear  a  cousiderabl^ 
resemblance  to  those  of  Carpiodes.  Tbe  form  is,  however,  coai-ser  thai 
that  of  any  CarphdeSy  the  dorsal  fin  is  lower*  and  tbe  coloration  is' 
darker  and  duller.  The  species  reach  a  larger  size  than  do  those  of 
CarpiudeJt^  but  whether  larger  or  not  than  tbe  species  of  Ichthyohus  I  am 
unable  to  say.  In  external  appearance,  BubaUchthys  is  intermediat 
iK'tween  Carpioden  and  Ichthyohus^  the  one  species,  tuhnittjt,  resemblin| 
CarpiiidvH  most,  the  other,  urus^  being  most  like  Ichthyohus. 

Our  knowledge  of  the  species  of  this  genus  is  very  incomplete.    MaQJ 
species  were  named  and  indicated  by  Professor  Agassiz,  but  with  such 
fragmentary  descriptious  that  not  a  single  one  of  them   is  certaiidj 
known  by  any  one.     I  have,  however,  been  able  to  identify  in  specimei 
from  Quiney,  III.,  tbe  fishes  termed  by  him  J3.  buhalus  and  //.  m 
the  snmll  mouthed  and  the  lai'ge-mouthed  Buffalo.     Assumiug  these  V 
well-separated  si>ecies  as  a  basis,  I  have  compared  with  them  numeroa^ 
BiinUIo-lisbes  imin  various  localities,  and  iu  all  cases  I  have  found  tbei 
identical  witli  either  the  one  or  the  other.     1  have  therefore  ailoptc< 
the  tiypothesis,  jMjssible,  and  perhaps  probable,  that  all  of  tbe  nominal 
species  of  Professor  Agassiz  were  based  on  the  one  or  the  other  of  tbe«e 
two  forms.     As  to  this,  I  may  say  that  tbe  sole  basis  of  some  of  tbme 
uomiiml  si>ecies  was  the  differenco  in  locality.     From  what  wo  know  of 
the  range  of  other  siiecies  of  Catostomidcc^  there  is  nothing  antecedenily 
improbable  iu  the  same  fish  l>eing  found  iu  the  Wubash  »itd  Mobilo 
Rivers,   or   in  the  Tennessee  and  Osage.     Myj-ostoma   yuacroirpidotw 
Ermyztm  nhlonguK^   Minytrtma   meittnoptiy  CatoatomuH  (vrcJf,  anil  otbi 
are  known  to  occur  in  all  four  of  those  atreonu.    Tbe  queatioua 
locality  may,  I  think,  be  safely  elimiualeil  from  tbe  discosttioa.    T

tioo  of  Hafliiesque^s  8i>ecies  with  the  present  one  woiihl  lead 
rgfs«  in  non»enclat«re  far  from  desirable.  The  name  Jchtlnjob^ts 
tboD  belong  to  BuhaJichthyH  and  the  genus  ItMiyohmt  would 
^e  a  nevr  name.  As  thiti  can  never  bo  proven,  it  is  best  to  e-onsider 
Ajpi«i}z'AidentJ(lcatioD  as  correct  and  that  of  Dr.  Kirtland  wrong.  The 
tat  mention  of  this  species  was  that  of  Dr.  Kirtlnnd  a.s  CatondtmnH  hu- 
fiM.  The  name  buMtiSj  however,  was  given  throngh  an  I'lroiieons 
ttiAcation,  and  must  be  passed  over.  Next  cowe  Agussiz'S  names 
ttmruM  and  fiitulttJt,  both  possibly  belonging  herei  but  just  as  likely  be- 
loojciog  to  ums^  Both  of  them,  from  the  ex:isperatiug  insnflirienry  and 
trance  of  the  descriptions,  are  practically  unideiittHable.  Ni'Xt  is 
fs'a  buhatuHf  notie^Hl  below.  The  next  name  in  order  is  that  of 
ctfanrlltun  Kelson«  which  was  based  on  this  species,  as  I  havo 
lined  by  examination  of  his  type.  This  is  the  first  tenable  uame 
^drrteia/f  belonging  to  this  species,  unless  wi^  adopt  the  name  buhaluH. 
Sen  corned  Nelson's  altuji,  A  specimen  answering  Nelson's  description 
ti  an  respects,  and  as  evidently  belonging  to  the  species  now  under 
itioo,  Is  at  present  before  me.  It  is  a  fine  adnU  example, 
ily  comeH  my  own  htifHiUntt«,  intended  merely  as  a  siibstitnto  for  the 
^tihalH9^t  not  then  c-ousidered  tenable  as  the  sj>ecilhr  name  of

Tbe  adoption  of  the  name  huhaUiH  by  Agnssiz  after  the  knowledge

Bubalichtkys,  The  deacription  of  Scleroftnathus  eyprinella  ValeucioDD

with  /.  bubalusy  except  in  the  number  of  scales  above  the  lateral  liue,

perhaps  the  largest  uf  the  CatoHtomidw^  reachiug  a  weight  of  20  to

lytical  key  to  the  species  of  the  genas.  If  the  upper  lip  is  narrow,  with 
few  rows  of  tabercles,  it  will  Dot  be  easy  to  separate /ecundiw  from  teret. 
If  the  lip  is  broad,  with  many  series  of  tabercles,  it  will  be  approximated 
to  C.  occidentalism  differing,  however,  in  the  larger  scales  (about  60  in 
the  lateral  line,  instead  of  72).  I  therefore  qaote  the  original  descrip- 
tion, and  leave  the  relations  of  the  species  to  be  finally  settled  at  some 
fatare  time: — 

"  It  is  a  trae  Caioatomut  having  the  parietal  fontaoelle  well  marked  and  widely  opaa. 
The  head  enten  in  entire  length  5  times,  the  diameter  of  the  orbit  6  times  in  gx«atert 
length  of  aide  of  head.  The  insertion  of  the  dorsal  fin  anteriorly  is  nearer  to  the  ood 
of  the  muzzle  than  insertion  of  caudal ;  the  ventrals  originating  below  middle  of  di»-

**  Girard's  species  has  no  fontanelle ;  is  shorter  and  narrower;  the  diameter  of  orUt

"This  species  is  abundant  in  Utah  Lake,  and  is  called  'Sucker'  by  the  settlers. 
They  rnn  well  up  the  rivers  to  spawn  in  Juno ;  feed  on  the  bottom  and  «a<  tpawn  of 
better  fiuh  ;  spawning  beds  on  gravel ;  bite  at  hook  sometimes ;  are  extremely  nnmer- 
ous,  and  are  considered  a  nuisance  by  the  fishermen,  but  they  meet  with  a  ready  sale 
in  winter,  at  on  average  price  of  2^  cents  a  pound." — (Cope  &.  Yarrow,  I.  o.)

localities,  and  are  of  no  important^,  to  the  genend  character  of  x'c; 
tion,  as  is  the  case  on  the  Virfrin  Islands  i;\*ith  many  of  the  followi 
8pe*:ie8  that  ai-e  found  on  them,  but  not  in  St.  Croix.  It  would  be  t 
much  to  mention  all  the  difleifnt  species  here,  for  which  1  beg  to  re 
to  the  apjiended  liHt  and  tjibular  statement.  I  shall  only  enumerat 
few  of  the  mostt  interesting,  (^specially  ^falpighiaceie  (us  J^^rvoni 
tucidii,  Malpighia  Cnuhi  and  angtmtifolia)^  Kutacea)  {PUocarpus  rnrtry 
trnSy  TMnia  apinomj  Xanihouylum  ockroanjlum),  Legumtuos^e  [AtOii 
florida,  Picleiia  arhtaitu,  Scsbania  sericea,  and  Acacia  nudiflonx),  i 
Sttpotaccii!  {Sapota  SidtroTt/Ion).  Auiong*  Monocotylcdones  art*  to 
mentioned  ArthmHiyiidium  capUiifolium,  lihi/vvfuwpora  pumlh,  Ditmi^ 
pilotfutsvula^  CaUipnU  nutans,  and  several  Orchids,  Severjd  of  thi 
plants  grow  more  or  leas  givgariouf*ly,  thus  iKicoming  characlcristi 
to  the  formation.  Among  these  i\w  Mofpigliio  Ciiidn^  Utynonifx  hti/t 
Acitcia  nudifloruj  Sabinca  florida^  and  M'veral  species  of  IMlca*  mmsX 
them  being  very  Common,  and  even  generally  used  for  domciitic 
poses. 

Ih'-'^idea  these  species,  entirely  wanting  in  St.  Croix,  the  \\r\ 
Itthinds  possess  sevr ral  that  are  very  common,  or  at  least  not  unonran 
on  them,  but  which  occur  but  very  rai'ely  in  St.  Cn>ix,  such  as  77/H, 
nrgentc^  Uondekiia  pihsa^  Faramca  odoraHn^hnay  Miconia  antjunti/o 
Mimona  Ceratouitt,  and  others,  nnd  most  of  which  I  have  not  found 
self  in  the  latter  island,  but  only  found  labelled  with  St,  Cmix  us  hnbi 
in  the  Copenhiigcn  herbarium,  so  that  an  ciTor  in  some  casus  at  lo 
may  be  not  at  all  impossible. 

Uowevcr  great  are  the  diffei-e^ncea  in  the  flora  on  the  twogTYiup^ 
ialnnds,  yet  this  interesting  fact  is  not  due  to  their  possessin-    -'  '  tfl

ouDlf  to  different  periods  of  imiui^iTtition  under  varied  physical 

prt(hlJnifti8  titat  we  tuoBt  ascribe  tJie  reniaikablc  discrepauciea  iu  the

dNffiM  by  mtt  ou  the  present  oceaftion.    But  as  lon^  0^4  Porto  Kico, 

Bqiif  and  cren  Cubn,ai*o  hIHI  iusufficieutly  explorctl,  it  may  very  well 

donbtliil  whether  those  epocies  do  not  also  occur  in  one  or  sev- 

mlof  tbetn,  jnst  aa  several  Cuban  plants,  describeil  as  endemical  in 

UmI  uland  by  Prof.  Grisebaeh,  have  been  found  by  me  to  occur  not  at 

[limtej'  '  the  Vir^n  Islands  and  St.  Croix,  such  as  Arthrostt/' 

[.ttiw<w|,i     ,.....,( J  Kcynoma  lati/oHa^  and  E.  viucronat/i, 

it  may  thus  be  confidently  asserted  that  both  the  groups  in  question 
iwtderived  Iheir  stoctc  of  plants  from  the  neighbouring  larger  island  of 
Pirto  Hico.  Tlie  <ineNtiou  that  remains  to  be  solved  is  merely  why 
fciwthcj  not  all  received  the  sauie  speeie.**,  and  particulai'Iy  why  is  it 
ikUfiL  Croix,  although  the  largest  of  all,  has  reeeive*!  a  comparatively 
ttd  absolutely  much  less  number  of  species  than  for  instance  the  far 
••Iler St.  Thomas! 

FiirlUe  explanuiion  of  those  iiitorosting  fact«  we  have  no  doubt  to 
^  to  tUn  gi>ilogiwU  hisloiy  ol"  the  islands,  as  the  conditions  for  immi- 
PWlim  (AW  Mirsi,  even  if  jtossible  to  all  the  siMMiies,  are  essentially  the 
■Aft  in  both  ^i-oup8,  and  therefore  give  no  solution  of  the  pi'oblom  in 
IMioii. 

1  im  thiu  led  to  think  that  at  a  former  period  all  the  West  India 
^<li  have  been  connected  nuitually,  and  i>erhaps  with  a  part  of  the 
h  fontineiit  also,  during  which  time  the  plants  in  common  to 

^^«'  ' ',  :l.s  well  as  to  the  West  Tndie.s  and  the  contiuetit,  have 

Hh|i)"  irieielves  over  their  present  geographical  ureas,  at  least  as 

HpriMtbey  are  not  iKtssessed  of  particular  faculties  for  emigration  over

^*«*yi'"  *•  r  islamis,  has  thereafter  Ivon  separated  from  Porto 
-111  Irtlauds,  and  put  into  its  present  isolated  jHrnitioii, 
It  seems  to  liA^'e  retained  ever  since,  whilst  the  latter  group  of 
either  still  for  u  long  iH»rio*l  reraainetl  in  connection  with

after  the  separatioii  of  St.  Croix  irom  the  latter,  and  imxnigmtion  wc 
fijially  have  ceased  by  the  sepai-atioit  between  them,  as  it  exislA  at 
presf'iit  perio<l.  TUu8,  the  plants  found  in  the  Vir^  Inlatids,  but  D( 
iu  St^  CroLx,  would  seem  to  have  been  more  recently  cnyitcnl  in 
probable  centre  of  vegetation,  Porto  Uico,  or  some  other  of  the  larger 
tilleH;  the  endemic  ones,  ik$  iu  the  other  inlands  also,  being  the  youn) 
of  all,  not  having  been  formed  till  after  the  complete  separation  hv.tvri 
the  islands  had  been  cfl'ecteil.  This  latter  suggestion,  which  i>erha] 
seems  oontratlictor>'  to  the  general  accepted  theory  of  considering  t1 
endemic  forms  on  oceanic  isles  as  the  remnants  of  the  oldest  orij 
vegetation,*  api)ear8  to  be  confiiTned  by  the  fact  that  even  on  st 
recent  formations  as  the  BahamavS,  which  have  as  yet  been  but  im] 
fectly  explored,  already  no  less  than  eighteen  endemic  species  have 
discovered-t 

Tlie  sup]x>8ition  that  the  islands  may  have  been  separated  from 
beginning,  and  have  receive<l  tlieir  flora**  through  immigration  over  tb^ 
sea,  is  sufitciently  confute^l,  i>artly  by  the  great  noinber  of  species 
mon  to  them  all,  which  clearly  indicates  the  connection  in  former  tim( 
with  a  l;irf!:er  country,  partly  by  the  circumstance  that  most  of  tJie 
cies  common  to  the  islands  are  iu  no  way  better  adiipted  for  migrutio 
over  the  water  than  tJiose  ]>eculiar  to  the  Virgin  Islands  only ;  iu 
but  few  of  them  apparently  possess  the  faculty  of  crossing  salt-wat 
even  for  a  limiteil  distance. 

Supposing  the  theory  of  a  prolonged  or  oftencr  repeated  counectii 
between  Porto  Bico  and  the  Virgin  Islands  to  be  correct,  it  rem 
still  ti>  explain  how  St.  Croix  can  have  obtained  a  nimiber  of  R|ie€i« 
which  do  not  occur  in  the  latter  group.    A  few  of  these  apode^,  V] 
CoHtela  ercvtay  Mnyi4^HUs  elivodcmlroiikji^  Zizyphyts  rcticulaivB^  Anthtgi 
thus  jatnaicenitiSy  and  Buittts  Vahlii^  occur  in  St.  Croix  on  the  terth 
limestone  only,  and  soem  thus  to  have  avoided  tlie  Virgin  Islands 
not  finding  there  the  substratum  suited  to  their  orgaiiLsntion. 
greater  parts,  however,  might,  for  all  ai)piirent  reasons,  as  well  occwr  1] 
the  Virgin  group  as  iu  St.  Croix,  and  their  abscncG  in  the  former  coni 
be  cxidained  iu  this  way.    It  must,  however,  Iks  understood  that  whiM 
my  investigation  of  St.  Croix  has  b«»en  thon»ugh,  and  eari'ied  on  fiij

James  U.  Clark,  Chester,  Conn. 

"Advantages  claimed  for  this  hanger:  To  ship  (beniddrr  oi 
to  enter  the  tougne  (which  has  tho  rnddrr  itlreudy  Btt;irhi 
grooved  plate  from  the  top  Just  fur  enongli  to  gel  it  ftteoily,  And  I 
it  down,  when  it  will  go  to  iis  place  without  further  cure,  llrnc 
the  firvt  great  advautugu  whiih  this  liauger  iHKwnwa  over  the  n 
viz,  the  ease  and  dispatch  with  which  the  rudder  can  b«  kliiypci 
all  circumstiuicca. 

£very  boatman  knows  tho  trunblo  he  has  bwn  to,  at  thnnHj 
to  hhip  his  rudder^  while  iu  n  seaway,  in  tlio  dark,  or  in  mi 
when  the  oyoft  in  tbn  bout  cnuld  not  bo  seen;  often  bvixig 
rvaeh  down  with  his  hantl  tu  get  thu  lower  pintle  enterotl. 

Froui  the  quickne^e  with  which  thi;  niddcr  e^n  be  KhipiwO*  tii^ 
tiou  of  tho  boat,  and  under  any  circuuistanctTs,  ami   its  oecni 
shipiMMl,  it  luuAt  n'eunmiend  it»e1f  for  all  life-lHMLl  pur[KH«Mfc, 
cose  of  an  emergency,  time  is  of  vital  iuiportniice. 

Another  advantage  is  tbnt  with  lliis  hjniger  the  rudder  n 
nnsliipashas  often  lieon  tho  e.i.se  with  tho  common 
boat  has  bmm  left  for  a  short'  time  ami  tho  tith-r  vurkc 
leaving  tbo  mddrr  free,  by  striking  the  iMitfotu  or  nu; 
mine  ii  tbrve  or  fonr  ineht^,  tn  nnliiuge  and  Uoat  away.     Aa 
be  MMMi,  this  ratiliot  get  nway  nntil  the  ruililer  Iiiim  rii«n  th»  v| 
of  tho  tongue,  which,  of  itself,  wou*d  uover  happen. 

Again,  with  ttiia  hanger  the  rudder  eon  be  ^l    :       *    ,it4 
while  under  full  soil,  thn.i  making  il  very  eon^^

imported,  and  the  ports  through  which  the  import  entries  are  cbiefly 
made. 

2.  The  domestic  consumption  of  foreign  products.    The  table  of  im  -

INTRODUCTION 


By  LUDWIO  KUMLIEX. 


The  vessel  conveying  the  Howgate  preliminary  Polar  Expedition  waa 
the  "Florence"  of  New  London,  Conn.  She  is  a  fore-and-aft  schooner  of 
fifty-six  tons,  anA  was  built  in  Wells,  Me.,  in  1851,  for  mackerel,  and 
was  suhseqaeutly  used  as  a  sealer  in  the  sonthem  seas. 

Althongh  a  staunch  and  fair  sea-boat,  as  far  as  her  diminutive  dimen- 
Bions  could  allow,  a  less  suitable  vessel  for  the  puri>ose  could  hardly 
have  been  chosen.  To  say  that  she  was  too  small  for  thorough  scientific 
vork  covers  the  ground,  but  quite  fails  to  convey  a  proper  idea  of  what 
drawbacks  all  scientific  labors  were  subjected  to  on  this  account. 

The  schooner  was  fitted  out  in  New  London,  and  sailed  o^  the  moru- 
ipg  of  August  3,  1877,  unfoi*tunately  at  least  two  months  later  than 
desirable,  had  her  object  been  purely  scientific. 

The  piimary  object  of  the  expedition,  by  Captain  Howgate's  order, 
was  to  coUect  material,  skins,  skin  clothing,  dogs,  sledges,  and  Eskimo, 
for  the  use  of  a  future  colony  on  the  shores  of  Lady  Franklin  Bay. 
The  secondary  object  of  the  expedition  was  scientific  work ;  and,  thirdly, 
whaling  was  to  be  one  feature  of  the  cnuse. 

So  fir  as  the  primary  object  is  concerned,  the  expedition  was  as  suc- 
oessfiil  as  could  be  expected:  a  large  amount  of  skins  was  collected 
and  made  into  clothing;  the  services  of  sixteen  Eskimo  were  secured, 
who  were  willing  to  accompany  the  coming  steamer  north waixl;  nearly 
thirty  dogs  were  seciu^d,  and  several  good  sledges,  with  an  ample  sup- 
ply of  whales' jaw-bones  for  shoeing  the  nmners  for  some  years. 

As  has  been  stated  by  Captain  Howgate,  "  the  peculiar  nature  of  her 
mission  lifted  the  enterprise  from  the  level  of  an  ordinary  whaling  voy- 
age to  the  higher  plane  of  geographical  discovery."  livery  one,  except 
the  scientistB,  had  a  "  lay"  in  tb*  voyage;  and,  so  for  as  tlio  crew  was 
concerned,  their  "lay"  was  to  be  their  only  renmneratiou ;  as  a  natural 
conseqoencey  whaling  became  the  primary'  object  to  them.  The  expe- 
dition was  al8o£Eurly  successful  in  this  direction. 

As  tai  as  t2ie  Bcientific  work  is  concerned,  some  valuable  work  was 


done,  esi>eciaUy  by  Mr,  8hermaa  in  meteorology ;  still,  nearly  all  Uie  ifiteth 
tiflc  labors  were  prosecuted  imder  very  tli&comugiug  coudltiotij^ir  Tbe 
lack  of  any  place  to  woik  in  ^vo.  a  suow^iut  ou  abore,  in  which  uelther 
sufficient  light  nor  beat  was  to  be  obtaiuetl,  vendei-etl  it  very  difScuU  t« 
prosecute  certain  investigations.  The  kite  date  of  sailing  and  tbe  t-ArJj 
departure  ^tpm  the  \rinter  hiirbor  deprived  as  of  the  most  tuti*n»tio^ 
and  profitable  season  for  scientific  research. 

The  outward  trip  presented  uotUiug  to  break  the  iistiiil  monotony  of* 
long  sailing  voyage;  fogs  and  lii^ht  winds  prevailed  till  ofi'  tbe  iiottliof 
Hesolution  laland^  when  a  strong:  northeast  gale  was  eucouutereil.  Tbc 
schooner  was  heavily  loaded  and  j)oorly  trinimetl,  so  tbat  some  wmmi- 
ness  for  safety  was  naturally  felt,  especially  as  we  were  closti  irfthon- 
among  icebergs  and  rocUs,  in  a  thick  fog  and  on  an  unknown  coast.  One 
boat  was  stove  in  and  a  few  barrels  of  provisions  washed  from  dt*t; 
otberwise  no  damage  was  done. 

The  iirst  anchorage  was  in  Niautilie  Harbor^  on  the  western  &hore  of 
Cumberland  Soimd,  September  11^,  forty-one  days  after  leaving  >'ew 
Loudon.  £^mo  natives  were  secured  here,  to  assist  in  whalijigj  and  all 
their  worldly  possessions,  including  dog*,  sledges,  lK)ats,  &c.,  were  iakn 
upon  the  decks,  and  the  schooner  weighed  anchor  and  started  for  tJie 
opposite  siile  of  tlio  sound.  A  short  stay  was  made  at  the  Kikkenou 
IsIandSj  and  ou  tbe  0th  of  October  the  Floreuce  drapped  anchor  iu  tlie 
little  harbor  of  .Vnnanactook,  ut  about  lat  07^  X,  long.  GS^  W  W. 

AnaugeiiK'Uts  were  at  once  begun  by  Mr.  Sherman  and  myself  to  ertct 
a  shelter  that  would  serve  lor  an  ob:^ervatory  and  geueml  working-place; 
an  eminence  on  a  little  rocky  islet  iu  tUo  harbor  was  chosen  for  tJiis 
pnr|)ose,  and  our  tent  raised.  lustnimcnt-shelters  were  erected,  and  tin; 
meteorological  work  began  in  earnest- 

A-a  soon  as  the  suow  became  eonipact  enough,  ife  engaged  the  Eskimo 
to  build  a  snow  house  for  us,  in  T\'hieh  our  tent  ser\'ed  as  a  lining. 

It  was  often  tlilhcult  to  get  from  the  .ship  to  the  shore  ou  account  <rf 
the  ice  or  unusually  stormy  weather. 

AVe  iriiiu'oved  every  npportunily  ut  this  latt.'  day  to  secure  !^i»eciTiieiis; 
but  as  tbe  ice  soon  formed  over  the  sound,  our  endeavors  were  fiurlrom 
satisfactory,  especially  as  we  were  unable  to  i>rocm'e  a  boat  with  aay 
degree  of  certainty,  as  they  had  to  be  kept  iu  readiness  for  whaling. 

The  winter  was  spent  by  Mr.  Sherman  iu  taking  observatious;  and  to 
H'om  the  manner  in  which  he  assiduously  ap])lied  himself  to  his 
night  and  day,  through  all  weathers  and  under  the  most  disooor 


circnmstanees,  the  results  of  liis  labors  cannot  fail  to  be  very  Viil- 
Ieand<lo  justice  to  Mr.  Sboi-maii'.'i.iiiJefatigrable  i^ersevei-auce  ami 
(schoWy  attainments.    "Wo  spont  our  time  in  procuring  and  talking  care 

fptvimcns,  as  well  na  taking  our  "watch"  at  the  observatory  wheu 
too  busy  with  other  work, 
from  our  peculiar  sun-oimdings  and  the  isolation  to  which  wo  wero 
iy  subjected,  we  lost  much  of  oar  wontM  euthnsiasm  during  the 
Ttreary  winter,  and  foiuid  rest  only  in  continual  work. 
10  spring  of  1878  was  stormy  and  backward,  and  th^  prevalence  of 
therly  gales  kept  the  ice  closely  packed  about  us  till  the  fore  pait  of 
Jdy.  Tliis  treacherons  condition  of  the  ice,  and  early  depailai*e  fi-om 
H^  winter  harbor,  robbed  um  of  any  opportunity  to  i>rosecute  extended 
^■aFclicA,  except  in  the  immediate  vicinity  of  the  harbor;  thus  the 
Hk  valuable  season  was  coni])letely  lost  to  us. 

'  TIh.'  Florence  left  hex  winter  harbor  on  the  0th  of  July,  having  all  the 
ci)ll(Sft«i  material  for  the  ftiture  Arctic  colony  storetl  in  her  hold,  and 
sixteen  E^skimo  and  twenty-eight  dogs  on  deck. 

In  the  unneeessniy  h;mte  of  departureniany  valuable  preimrations had 
to  l>e  abandoned  for  want  of  lime  to  gel  them  aboanl,  as  well  as  space 

tore  them, 
lortnloppages  were  made  at  two  or  tbive  jtoints  on  the  outward 
age  from  the  sound,  nn*!  on  the  1  Oth  of  July  we  nmnded  Cajie  ^Icn-y 
»imI  took  the  pack-ice  of  Davis  Straits.  It  was  on  this  day  that  the 
"rfiooner  received  the  bump  which  afterwanls  cost  us  so  much  trouble 
ami  anxiety. 

Tbc  [Wick  proved  to  be  quite  loose,  but  extensive,  aud  the  does  rather 

Bhil,  but  the  winds  wore  invariably  contrary  aud  quite  stiff,  and  the

dlNappoiutment  was  sorely  felt. 

advent  of  the  expedition  was  awaited  with  great  anxiety,  more

close-reefed  storm-sail,  while  the  hatches  were' battened  d 
poor  natives  in  the  hold.  We  were  entirely  at  the  mercy  of 
and  drifted  with  the  sea.  An  unpenetrable  fog,  with  hes 
tinned  the  whole  time,  and  we  were  drifting  among  hun 
■  bergs,  but  luckily  did  not  come  in  contact  with  any. 

On  the  27th  land  vras  sighted  on  our  starboard  quarte 
quent  obse^^■  ations  proved  us  to  be  in  the  mouth  of  Exeter 
had  drifted  completely  across  Davis  Straits. 

On  the  31st  of  August  we  agniu  anchored  at  Xiantilic,  i 
ingly  landed  our  passengers  and  all  their  goods,  and  e^joy^

We  started  with  a  fair  free  wind,  which  soon  increased  t

head  sea.  We  vere  somewhere  off  Sable  Island  at  the  time,  our  exact 
bearings  bemg  unknown  to  us.  The  pumps  were  kept  manned,  and  dili- 
gent search  made  for  the  leak,  but  without  avail.  Such  a  condition  of 
a£Eairs  cast  a  shadow  of  gloom  over  the  whole  company:  our  provisious 
gone,  ship  leaking  badly,  and  not  knowing  at  what  moment  it  might 
gain  on  us;  the  elements  in  all  their  fury  let  loose,  so  that  we  were  en- 
tirely in  their  power,  drifting  helplessly  at  the  mercy  of  ragihg  billows, 
without  knowledge  of  our  position  within  a  hundred  miles.  On  the 
evening  of  October  25,  Thatcher's  Island  lights  were  sighted,  and  the 
Florence  seemed  to  have  become  animated,  for  with  a  fair  2^\V.  breeze 
she  sx>ed  like  a  thing  of  life,  and  before  midnight  we  saw  the  reflected 
lights  of  Boston  on  the  clouds,  and  the  next  morning  dropped  anchor  in 
ProvincetoWn,  Mass.  Provisions  wcto  secured  and  some  slight  roi)air8 
made. 

On  the  morning  of  October  30,  the  Florence  lay  alongside  of  the  same 
dock  she  bad  left  fifteen  months  before,  every  man  brought  back  alive 
and  well. 


ETHNOLOGY. 

PRAaMBNIAEY  NOTES  ON  THE  ESKIMO  OF  CUMBEELAND  SOUND. 


By  Ludwig  Kumuex. 


The  Cuml>erland  Straits,  Sound,  Gulf,  or  Inlet,  extends  from  about 
lat.  65°  N.  to  lat.  67°  +  K.  It  is  the  Cumberland  Straits  of  Baffin,  its 
original  discoverer  at  the  end  of  the  sixteenth  century;  the  Hogarth 
Sound  of  Captain  Penny,  who  rediscovered  it  in  1839  j  and  the  I^orth- 
umberland  Inlet  of  Captain  Wareham  in  1841. 

During  the  last  quarter  centiu^y  it  has  often  been  visited  by  Scotch 
and  American  whalemen,  ships  frequently  wintering  on  the  southwest, 
em  shores. 

It  is  at  present  unknown  if  it  be  a  sound  or  gulf;  it  is  generally  con- 
Bidered  as  a  gulf,  but  some  Eskimo  say  that  the  Kingwah  Fjord,  one  of 
the  arms  extending  to  the  NE.,  oi)ens  into  a  large  iexpanse  of  water, 
to  them  unknown.  Icebergs  are  also  sometimes  found  in  this  Qord  that, 
from  their  positions,  seem  to  have  come  from  the  northward,  and  not 
from  the  south. 

The  eastern  shore  of  this  souud  forms  the  western  boundary  of  that 
portion  of  Cumberland  Island  which  lies  between  its  waters  and  Davis 
Straits,  and  known  as  the  Penny  Peninsula. 

In  about  lat.  CG^  N.  the  Kingnite  Fjord  extends  from  the  sound  in  an 
ENE.  direction,  and  nearly  joins  Exeter  Sound  from  Davis  Straits; 
they  are  separated  only  by  a  portage  of  a  few  miles.  The  Cumberland 
Eskimo  make  frequent  excursions  to  the  eastern  shore  via  these  fjords, 
but  seem  to  have  extended  their  migrations  but  a  short  distance  north- 
ward, finding  Cumberland  Sound  more  to  their  tastes. 

The  width  of  Cumberland  Sound  opposite  Niantilic  is  about  thirty 
miles,  iwssibly  its  widest  i)art.  It  is  indented  by  numerous  aud  large 
fjords,  few,  if  any,  of  them  having  been  explored ;  many  islands  ai-e  scat- 
tered along  both  shores,  aud  in  some  instances  form  quite  considerable 
groups. 

The  present  Eskimo  are  few  in  numbers.    "We  would  estimate  the 

entire  impulation,  men,  women,  and  children,  on  both  sides  of  the  sound.

Tlie  inx'isent  prinripal  lieadquaiters  are  at  tlie  Kikkertou  IslandSt  or  at

As  a  rule,  the  present  rare  is  of  short  statura,  the  men  &om  Ave  feet 
inches  to  five  feet  six.  There  are  some  exceptions,  but  they  are 
favor  of  a  leas  rather  than  a  gi-eat^T  height.  The  women  are  a  httle 
ort4jr.  The  lower  extremitie?*  are  rather  short  in  pmjwrtiou  to  the 
',  and  bow-legs  are  alnawt  the  rule.  This  probably  arisea  ftt>m  the 
er  in  which  the  children  ai-e  canied  in  the  mother's  hoo<l,  as  well 
e  eaily  age  at  which  they  attempt  to  walk.  The  habit  of  sitting 
legged  may  also  have  a  tendency  to  protUujo  this  deformity.  Their 
dsand  feet  are  small  an<l  well  fornwMl.  Their  hands  ai-e  ahnost  covered 
ththescarsof  cutsandbiniise-s.  Itseems  that  in  heulingtheinjui-ediiart:

nation  in  the  color  of  their  skin,  anil  a  description  that  "would  answer

yes  are  small,  oblique,  and  black  or  very  dark  brown»  The  hair  is 
lack,  straight,  coarse,  and  very  abundant.  It  is  rarely  wavy  or  curly 
inong  the  full-bhxMled  Innuits. 

Xhero  ore,  of  course,  exceptions  to  the  above  in  cases  of  half-breeds. 
Tlieir  faces  ai*e  broad  and  flat,  with  rather  large  lips  and  prominent 
cheek-bones. 

Infanticide  is  not  practiced  among  the  Cumberland  Eskimo  at  the 

resent  day.    I  have  leananl  from  s<»meof  the  most  intelligent  that  this 

iMirburous  custom  was  in  vogue  in  former  times,  however.    Among  the 

natives  of  Reimlse  Bay  and  tlios*'  living  on  the  north  siion>s  of  ITudson'S

we  could  induce  no  one  to  tell  us,  except  one  stjuaw,  who  agreed  to, 
but  only  on  coinlition  that  we  became  one  of  the.iutereste<l  jHirties  and

generally  willing,'  to  be  a  martyr  for  the  cause  of  science,  we  allowed  this 
opportunity  to  pass  without  improviu}^  it.

cUilib-eii  whose  jiarents  are  ilead,  or,  us  olten  happens,  whose  mother  is

or  i"eccived  as  a  gift,  are  always  taken  as  goo<l  eure  of  as  if  they  were

Among  the  Eskimo  employed  by  the  Florence  was  a  family  that  hiul 
two  chiUlrcD,  who  passe*!  for  bi-other  and  aister.  One,  the  boy,  was  a 
nephew  of  **  Eskimo  Joe,'' of  Polaris  fame.  Ui'  had  been  bought  ft*om 
the  Uudson's  Strait>i  En^kimo,  .some  two  hundred  miles  to  the  south.  lie 
waa  a  perfect  little  satan;  an<l,  though  he  gave  us  much  annoyance,  he 
was  a  never-failing  source  of  amusement  to  us  til).  The  piil,  again,  was 
a  native  of  Exeter  Stmnd,  on  the  west  coast  of  Davis  Staits:  still,  both 
were  eousidei'ed  as  their  own  children,  and  well  cared  for. 

Half-breeds  are  said  to  be  of  more  irritable  temperaments,  and  les.s 
able  to  bear  oxiwsnre  and  fatigue,  than  the  full-bloo*led  Eskimo. 

The  fuo<l  of  the  Cumberland  Eskimo  consists  entirely  of  flesh,  and  iu 
innnt  sections  of  the  sound  of  Prnjomyn  ftttkhiH.  In  fact,  this  animal  is 
tJjeir  principal  dependence  for  food,  fuel,  clothing,  and  light.  The 
Eiddmo  will  eat  a  few  of  the  benicsof  Vaecinivm  uliifinmutn  and  Empetrnm

their  fo*>d. 

Afc  soon  H8  the  ice  has  fairly  left  the  sound,  the  Eskimo  hiuiter  leaves

The  **black  akiii^  of  the  whale,  ejilh  by  them  muktuk,  is  esteemwl 
the  greatest  delicacy.  When  they  first  procure  a  supply  of  thin  iiM, 
they  almoBt  invariably  eat  themselvea  si(  tj  espijeially  the  children.  We 
found  this  black  skiu  not  unpleasant  tasting  when  boiled  and  thenpictleil 
in  strong  nuegar  and  eateu  cold;  bnt  the  first  attempts  at  maatieatiiig  it

C'ialTy  when  raw,  it  actn  as  a  powerful  hixative.  It  is  generally  eaicu 
with  about  half  an  inch  of  blubber  adhering. 

The  greater  portion  of  their  food  is  eaten  raw,  especially  in  winter. 
When  they  cook  at  all,  they  only  "simmer"  it  over  their  lamps  in  a  pot 
of  soapstone.  These  pots  are  from  eight  to  twenty  inches  in  length, 
usually  about  sixteen  inches,  and  though  of  variable  patterns,  the  length 
is  generally  three  times  the  Avidth  or  depth.  Among  such  Eskimo  as 
are  able  to  prociu'e  old  cast-away  meat-cans  from  around  the  ships,  tin 
has  superseded  the  soapstone  both  for  lamps  and  boiling-pots. 

In  snmmer,  especially  wlien  on  hunting  excursions,  they  very  often 
"fry"  meat  by  making  a  little  fireplace  of  stones,  and  lajing  a  flat  piece 
of  stone  on  the  top.  The  opening  to  receive  the  fuel  supply  is  to  wind- 
'ward.  For  fuel  at  such  tunes  they  use  Cassiojie  tetragona  and  Lednm 
paJustre;  these  shrubs  make  a  quick  and  very  hot  fire.  It  would  be 
comparatively  an  easy  task  for  these  people  to  gather  enough  Cassiope 
ma  during  the  summer  to  burn  diu'ing  the  coldest  weather,  and 
wholly  iipon  blubber. 

I  the  Eskimo  have  been  simmering  meat,  esi)ecially  seal,  in  their 
pots,  they  pour  ofT  the  liquor  and  mix  it  with  about  an  equal

»tininicnt8  are  found  in  the  proves,  but  seem  to  be  but  little  used  ot

When  a  seal  is  brought  to  the  encampment,  especially  if  they  hove  not 

een  plenty  for  .some  day.s,  all  the  villagers  are  invited  to  the  hut  of  the 

leky  hunter,  and  the  seal  is  soon  dispatched.    A  couple  of  the  younger 

len  skui  the  animal  and  distribute  the  pieces  to  the  assembled  company

sleep  with  a  piece  of  seal  meat  by  their  side,  whieh  they  attacked  every 

time  they  awoke.

for  them.    It  was  with  great  difficulty  that  we  cmdd  induce  them  to 
bring  these  binls  to  camp  without  having  them  thus  mutilated. 
'    Since  whalers  began  to  cruise  in  the  Cumlx'rland  watei*s,  they  have

Dthers  relate  it  in  this  manner:  **Two  of  tlie  tii-st  people  quarreled. 
e  sai«l :  * Liet  it  Im?  day  and  let  it  Iw  night,  and  let  tlui ^wople  die.*  The

er  a  long  wrangle  it  came  to  pass  na  the  rtrst  had  said.*' 
It  is  interesting  that  this  same  curious  legend  exists  among  the  Eskimo 
Cumberland  Soiuid;  tliey  say  though  that  '^  those  who  quarreled 
Uy  arranged  matters  and  had  both  attire  iluy  and  en-tire  night  at  the

be  longs  of  Lejius  glacialis  are  considered  as  a  sure  cure  for  boils  and 
manner  of  sores  j  they  draw,  they  say,  and  their  manner  of  applying

u  arter  the  animars  death  as  x>ossible,  and  while  they  are  yet  warm. 
u  cases  of  8ciir\*j*  they  never  use  C(H*hliari<tj  but  the  stomach  of  a 
My  killed  reindeer,  with  the  vegetable  contents,  instead.  If  the 
rvy  patient  l>e  very  ba*l,  the  limbs  are  bound  with  pieces  of  the  deer's 
miich,  wJiale  or  scjd'a  blubl>er,  or  any  kind  of  fresh  meat.    If  a  whale 

be  caught  at  such  a  time,  the  patient  is  sometimes  bodily  shoved  into 
carcass,  or  the  lower  extremities  only  are  sunken  into  the  flesh.

Their  devotion  and  belief  in  the  anoooU  are  unlimited;  they  cau  m 
he  induced  to  trespass  on  the  couunands  or  dislK»lieve  the  propl 
of  these  important  personages.    AVhen  one  has  been  a  very  en 
ancoot  for  a  long  time  lie  may  l>ecome  a  great  ancoot ;  this  n( 
a  period  of  fasting,  and  then,  as  the  story  goes,  an  animal  they 
ftmarook  (the  same  word  is  used  for  wolf,  and  for  an  animal  whkiij 
probably  mythical,  nulessit  can  be  a  Gido)  eomes  into  his  hut  ami  l>i 
the  man,  who  inime<liately  falls  to  pieces;  his  liones  are  then  eoiivp] 
to  the  sea,  where  he  lives  for  some  time  as  a  walrns ;  he  finally  ret 
among  lua  people,  a  man  in  api>earaDcc,  but  a  God  in  iwwer. 

If  the  prophecy  of  an  ancoot  <Uh?s  not  come  to  imns  as  he  had : 
would,  any  ijheuomenon  of  natiu^,  as  a  halo,  coromi,  aurora,  &e,, 
ticient  to  ha%-e  broken  the  spell,  and  the  ancoot  loses  nothing  of  liis 
tation  by  the  failure,  for  it  is  then  believed  that  the  measare, 
it  might  have  been,  was  not  pleaj^ing  to  Tormjanuk. 

The  people  come  to  these  soothsayers  after  all  nmnner  of  inlbi 
We  knew  of  one  case  where  a  young  woman  asked  an  atteoot  if  )m\ 
uubora  cliild  would  be  a  boy  or  girl.    He  retired  oatsitlo  the  hiu  ffl

he  ad<ls,  "K  it  is  not  a  boy,  it  will  be  a  girP!    For  this  valuable  ni 
mation  he  charge<l  three  seal-skins  and  a  knife.    An  a  general

dom  they  refuse  to  give  them  what  they  ask  for  in  return  for  th<dr 
able  services. 

They  seem  to  have  an  idea  of  a  future  state,  but  what  we  dew 
as  the  region  down  below  they  consider  as  the  best  i>luce.    lu

recompeaise  for  the  sufl'ering  they  underwent  cm  eartJi ;  'all  the  rest  jro  up. 

Ill  this  connection  we  will  mention  that  the  Cumberland  JCsldmo  think 

Ihe  nurora  hormlin  is  the  spirits  of  <le.ad  Eskimo  ilatu'in^  and  having  a

Wo  have  been  told  by  some  that  those  who  hunt  in  thekyaekandget 

lost  or  *lriven  upon  the  ice  or  some  uninhabited  island  are  supplied  with 

flood  from  these  i-egious;  that  is,  living  game  is  tbi-owu  iu  their  way  for 

them  to  capture,  so  they  will  not  staj^'e.    This  is  firmly  believed  by  them. 

Unlike  the  Greeulamlers,  the  Cmnberlaud  Eskimo  of  the  present  day 

have  no  i>emmnent  haI)iliitious.    They  may  live  at  the  same  locality  for 

several  wiuteiTs  in  suwessiou,  but  each  year  construct  a  uew  snow-house. 

The  Greenlander  has  a  periuaneut  swl  or  st4)ne  but,  and  lives  iu  tents 

[only  while  away  hunting.    The  Cumberland  xuitives  live  in  snow-houses 

from  the  time  the  snow  gets  firm  enough  to  l>e  tit  to  build  with  till  it 

melt.s  iu  June.    They  generally  begin  the  coustr»ictio!j  of  tlie  snow-liouse,

of  oeeupants  somewhat,  but  more  by  the  industry  of  the  hunter  and 
economy  of  his  Avife.  for  the  skins  need  repairing  very  often;  and,

Of  prime  imiM»rtunoe  to  the  Eskimo  in  h\B  uiwvff^oT  hikkif*  At  tbe 
!fieut  day,  tUu  Hcaliu;;  »\tvar  is  ofteu  unile  tVom  an  old  wbHUM:iiice, 
[avitig  a  wooden  baud!o  aiul  an  iron  bar|>oon-hi'ad  {n'tle  sl\i'trIio.s). 
'lie  (MX'Uet  ot*  the  lance  is  put  on  the  oii|H»sitt^  end  of  the  handk*,  and  is 
for  a  vnriery  of  i»nri»osi»s.  This  kind  of  c*i)ear  is  very  useful  to  the 
ikimo  in  catchiufj;  the  seals  in  theii-  atliil-s  thron<;h  tlie  ice.  Tliey  are 
extremely  expert  iii  the  une  of  this  wenjicm,  and  possess  siwh  niarvelons 
patience  that  they  will  stand  by  a  seal's  atlnk  all  day  awaitinjf  the  re- 
turn of  the  animal. 
Thi«  8i>ear  is  earned  ou  all  m-easions  wherever  they  fro  and  whatever 
inil  of  panic  they  pursue.  The  opposite  eiul  of  tlie  ^pear  from  whieh 
le  hai-poon  is  fiustrneil  is  also  their  principal  tool  in  hnilding  fox-traps 
ice,  cutting  down  hummocks  so  as  to  ^^et  their  ftle<l^es  over  the  shore- 
iy  &C.  Not  the  least  important  use  "f  this  instrument  is  to  souiul  the 
with  it.  In  travclinu  Ihey  very  often  come  to  places  where  the 
npid  running  tide  has  worn  the  ice  very  thin,  and  by  means  of  tliis 
L  si»enr  they  carefully  feel  their  way  nloug.  They  will  even  cross  ou  a 
^■oe  that  is  completely  rotten  by  feeling  around  till  they  get  uix>n  a  more 
^Boiid  siwit  and  then  advancing.    They  are  very  much  averse  to  getting 

into  the  water,  as  none  of  them  are  able  to  fi^nnl. 

I         The  harpoonhead  used  with  this  spear  is  made  of  iron,  and  is  about 

three  and  a  half  inches  in  length  and  one  inch  lietween  the  outside  tii>s 

of  the  barbs.    They  manufacture  thein  entiivly  by  filing^  *ind  will  sit 

,      and  lile  for  many  days  till  they  get  the  instniment  in  the  desired  form. 

[        For  whales  and  wahiis  they  u^e  a  much  dift'erent  weaiK>n,  the  Siime^ 

^ke  unagiue,  as  they  use<l  before  the  whites  came  among  them.    It  is  a 

^Harge,  awkward,  bulky -looking  affair,  with  a  shaft  made  from  the  horn 

^^f  MonodoH  fHonocerofij  or  from  yarts  of  a  whale's  ja\\U>ne,  ingeniously 

'      lai*hed  together,  when  wood  is  not  pro^.'iu'able.    ^>ome  have  tiie  hundle 

I      eoiniiosed  of  as  many  as  eight  to  a  dozen  pieces,  lieiuitiAdly  and  com- 

]>actly  lashed  together,  till  the  whole  is  as  firm  as  though  it  were  com- 

po.He<l  of  a  single  piece. 

Although  such  lai'ge  spears  were  not  rare  among  these  natives,  we 

found  dithculty  in  getting  them  to  i>art  with  them.    A  favorite  harpoon- 

bi'ad  is  also  hard  to  procui'e,  though  they  may  not  have  us<m1  it  \hr  yeai*s. 

L^ouie  considerable  value  seems  to  1m*  attached  to  these  old  implements, 

^Ibspecially  if  tliey  have  been  successful  with  tUeni  in  former  times.     We

were  taithfully  and  well  executed,  and  leaves  n^  no  reason  to  think  {hat 
they  in  any  inHtauce  iini>03ed  upon  ua.  Some  of  the  arrows  we  hav** 
seen  in  the  possession  of  sailors  that  had  bartered  for  them  for  a  mere 
song,  but  would  not  trade  thein  to  us,  under  the  impression  that  they 
would  bring  fabulous  sums  in  the  States.  They  now  jjrobably  adora 
some  third-rate  gin-shop. 

Of  the  arrows  figured,  No.  1  is  made  from  reindeer  antlers,  with  short 
wooden  shaft,  an  old  and  very  common  form  of  arrow.  Ko.  2  is  x>crbaps 
still  older.  This  is  also  made  of  reindeer^hom.  It  is  more  common  on  the 
Greeidand  coast  than  among  the  Cumberland  Eskimo.  No.  3  is  the 
only  one  of  the  kind  I  saw,  an<l  this  I  was  unable  to  procure;  the  head 
was  of  tlint,  and  the  next  piece  of  bone,  with  the  wootlen  shaft  lashed  iu 
two  places,  showing  probably  a  scan^ity  of  wood.  Xo.  4  was  a  rare  (?) 
form  of  arrow  among  the  Cumberland  Eskimo.  The  head  was  made  of 
stone,  with  the  forward  portion  of  the  shaft  of  boue  and  the  rest  of  woo<l. 
No.  5  Mas  iron-tipped,  a  favorite  i>attern  when  iron  was  scai-ce.  No.  7

suggested  after  No.  5,  as  any  pointed  piece  of  irou  can  be  utilized  for 
*his  form  of  arrow.  No.  0  has  a  lance-shaped  and  somewhat  elongated

Of  i)rime  hnportance  to  the  Eskimo  hunter  is  his  hook  for  catching 
the  young  seal.  Ilere  again  their  old  pattern  has  been  modified  by 
their  contact  with  the  whites.  A  glance  at  the  accompanying  figures 
will  sufficiently  explain  the  slia}>e  of  these  implements.  The  upper 
figuie  represents  the  ancient  pattern;  it  was  foun<l  in  a  grave  in  the 
Greater  Kingwah  Fjord,  but  so  much  decayed  as  to  fall  to  pieces  when 
handled ;  the  hook  part  was  made  from  a  i>oition  of  a  reindeer's  antler, 
with  a  small  barb  cut  near  the  point.  Its  resemblance  to  the  iron  hook 
of  the  present  day  is  very  apparent. 

The  sealing  hook  of  the  present  day  is  made  generally  from  a  discarded 
lance ;  the  handle  is  a  Ught  wooden  shaft  about  live  feet  in  length.

Wlieu  a  seal-skin  is  about  to  be  pre|>ai*eil  for  tlrying,  the  blubber  Is

and  is  by  far  the  most  effective  instrument  of  tho  three.  The  tmiiuur 
of  usiii^  thes^e  scrapers  is  to  take  tiie  »kin  firmly  in  the  lett  hand  aiwl

tiaaa  of  tbe  body,  aud  would  dry  uneveuly.  WTi«i  dry,  it  is  almost  as 
Btifl*  and  bard  as  a  boaitl.  Tliis  skin  is  used  mainly  for  the  soles  of 
lioots ;  the  pattern  is  cut  from  the  hide,  and  then  chewed  till  it  becomes 
sufficiently  softened  to  sew.  This  last  ox>eration  is  also  mainly  i>er- 
formed  by  the  old  squaws.  When  they  are  too  old  to  sew,  they  become 
oojook  chewers  as  the  last  resort,  and  when  their  teeth  fail  them  they 
are  better  off  in  the  gi-aA-e. 

Seal-skihs  ai-e  also  manufacture<l  into  drinking  cups ;  such  cups  gen- 
erally have  a  depth  aud  diameter  of  about  three  inches.  A  short, 
straight  piece  of  Ijone,  mostly  the  humerus  of  a  gull  or  duck,  is  sewed 
into  the  upper  rim  on  one  side,  projecting  outside  about  two  inches  and 
a  half;  this  serves  for  a  hau<lle.  The  hair  side  of  the  skin  is  usetl  for 
the  inside  of  the  vessel.  Larger  vessels,  somewhat  resembling  a  small 
sack,  were  used  to  cany  water  in  at  theii*  encampments;  but  when  out 
traveling,  they  mostly  carrj*  their  water  supply  in  a  seal's  stomach,  i)re- 
pared  for  the  purpose. 

We  would  natiu-ally  ex})ect  these  peoi>le  to  be  veiy  exi>ert  in  nmkiug 
Tarlous  devices  for  capturing  their  game  in  traps  or  snares.  This  does 
not  seem  to  be  the  case,  however.  They  make  a  fox-trap,  which  is  nothing 
more  than  a  little  i*ound  liut  of  ice,  with  a  hole  in  one  side  just  large 
enough  for  the  fox  to  crawl  into.  Inside  the  hut  is  a  large  slab  of  ice, 
which  rests  horizontally  upon  a  small  upright  piece  of  ice ;  the  end  of 
the  ui>right  rests  on  the  bait,  and  wlien  the  fox  pnlls  at  the  meat  he 
draws  the  upright  down,  and  the  ice  slab  falls  upon  him  aud  he  is  a  sure 
prisoner. 

Another  manner  of  catching  foxes  is  to  make  an  ice  house  mnch 
larger,  so  high  that  a  man  can  readily  stand  up  in  it.  A  small  funuel- 
shai>ed  hole,  just  large  enough  to  admit  the  fox,  is  nmde  at  the  top  of 
the  structure,  aud  the  bait  is  hung  inside  Just  out  of  his  reach.  The 
fox  will  work  a  long  time  trying  to  secure  it,  and  Anally  crawl  in  and 
jump  down  upon  the  tloor  of  the  hut,  but  then  he  is  imable  to  get  out 
again. 

A  sort  of  snare  is  sometimes  made  for  hares.  It  is  nothing  moi*e  than 
a  se^-skin  line,  with  a  number  of  slip-nooses  niton  it;  this  is  laid  across 
the  mns  of  the  animals,  or  upon  their  feeding-grounds.  They  aix»  often 
caught  in  this  manner;  but  the  foxes  are  generally  the  only  ones  bene- 
flted  by  thecai*ture;  all  that  the  Eskimo  finds  is  a  little  hair  and  a  few 
bones  the  next  morning. 

Birds  are  sometimes  snared  in  about  the  same  timnner,  except  that

One  of  theee  cnstonm,  wliich  possesses  n  goiMl  deal  ttf  interest,  is  tUeii* 
'  inatiuer  of  pveting  a  stranger.  When  a  stranger  airives  at  an  eneami)- 
ment,  and  is  persunally  unknown  to  all  tu'  the  major  i>ortiou  of  the 
JDhnbitants  of  the  village,  he  receives  an  introductiou  after  the  Ibllow- 
mg  manner:  The  villagers  (the  men)  form  themselves  into  a  single 
rank,  all  of  them,  with  the  exception  of  the  stranger  and  the  head  am^oot 
of  tlic  village,  having  hare-skin  mittens  on;  Ihey  then  begin  a  monoto- 
nons  singing  chant,  keeping  time  with  theii*  arms,  swinging  iheai  iu 
frcnit.  raising  the  hand  as  high  as  the  shoulder,  with  arm  slightly  bent^ 
and  then  descrilung  a  half  circle  by  lowering  the  hands  as  far  a^  the 
abdomen.  Finally,  the  omont  and  the  stranger  step  out  from  the  iiiuks 
and  face  one  another,  lioth  ha\e  mittens  of  seal-skin.  The  stranger 
complfU!ently  folds  his  arms  over  liis  breast,  and  inelines  his  head  to 
one  side,  so  as  to  fhUy  exjiose  his  cheek,  while  the  atwttot  deals  hint  a 
terrible  blow  on  it,  sometimes  felling  him  to  the  ground.  The  two  actors 
now  change  ]»arts,  and  it  becomes  the  strangers  turn  to  strike,  which 
be  does  with  a  vengeance  j  the  two  then  kiss  eiich  other,  and  the  cere- 
mony is  over.  The  stranger  is  now  duly  initiated  to  share  in  any  and 
all  their  customs,  and  due  hospitality  is  shown  him  by  all.  Among  his 
Jpvileges  he  can  also  choose  for  himself  a  wife  during  his  sojourn. 
^^jit»ther  cnstom,  which  was  once  very  popuhir,  is  the  f(>Uowing:  An

pairs  of  pants  on,  iimong  the  rest,  and  a  horri<l-hM»king  mask  of  skins. 
The  men  and  women  now  range  themselves  in  separate  and  opiwsite 
ranks,  and  the  ancoot  takes  his  place  between  them.  He  then  picks 
out  a  uuiu  and  conducts  him  to  a  woman  in  the  oi)]>o8it4«  i-anks.  This

Hi  all  the  dogs  thiit  diedat  Annanaetook,  at  least  four-lifths  of  tbe  adults 
were  males,  and  the  greater  niunl>er  of  these  died  about  the  time  the 
fumak's  were  in  heat. 

^^  was  very  much  interested  to  see  if  the  theory  that  hytU-ophobia  is 
^fevalent  only  in  eounti-ies  where  the  females  ai*e  subjeete^l  to  iutlis- 
^painate  slaughter,  or  auimal  instinct  thwai'te<l  or  i»erverted  under  the 
wiuol'un  iguonuit  and  fidse  modesty,  would  work  here,  instances  l>eing 
citi'd  of  Tnrkey  and  other  countries,  when.'  the  dog  is  held  sacred  and 
jJlijwwl  to  run  at  large,  that  hydrophobia  is  nnknon*n.     A(vonling  to 
Be  tJ»eory,  then,  that  its  origin  is  always  the  residt  of  mu-equited  affec- 
tion, wr  should  ftot  find  tlus  disease  aniong  the  Kskimo  dogs,  where  it 
toay  reasonably  be  expectetl  that  nature  has  allowe<l  the  proper  projwr- 
tiou  of  the  H«*xes  and  man  does  not  interfeiv;  lait  hcru  is  the  point: 
Das  the  Eskimo  dog  inufstraiuetl  t'lvedom  to  follow  the  instincts  of 
H*  auimal  Datm*e  t    We  Hiiswer,  iJy  no  means.    To  l»e  sure,  there  are 
pleuty  of  females,  but  they  are  appropriated  by  such  dogs  as  possess  the 

f*le«t  strength ;  the  females  go  to  tliem,  and  tlie  weaker  di>gH  iuv  given 
coUl  shoulder.    As  a  general  thing,  the  possession  of  a  slut  is  a  dia- 
Fuied  point,  which  ends  in  a  hard  flght  between  the  dogs;  but  there  is 
ik|  further  question  after  the  battle,  and  the  vanquished  <log  has  to  Iwar 
PMoublc  disa]»iHiintni(*nt;  this  he  seems  unable  to  do,  and  worries  him-

Qj^trtunlty  not  to  overlook  these  facts.  1  dissected  a  number  of  (be

f»r^n!^  disused  except  the  penis,  testicles,  and  sometimes  the  kidneys. 
"Why  [hi*  should  bo  the  ciise  I  am  at  a  loss  to  say.  Then?  i^  one  othCT 
thwirj-  thiit  may  tlu:«w  some  light  on  the  subject,  viz,  the  eon&tant  fnter- 
bwediug  of  the  dogs.  I  have  known  of  instances  where  a  dog  had 
]H>;4^'Ssioii  of  the  mother  and  her  yearling?  whelps,  all,  mother  itidtKVil, 
of  wUWh  he  wan  father  to.  It  is  certain  that  the  progeny  revolting 
ft-om  sneh  connections  ar©  vert*  inferior,  and  tend  toward  degcnemtinff 
the  race.  It  ot^en  happens  that  female  dogs  cohabit  with  wolves,  the 
tlog  being  driven  ofl'  by  the  superior  strength  of  the  wolf.  This  prog- 
eny again  is  characterized  by  superior  strength  and  great  powers  of 
endurance,  and  is  less  apt  to  suffer  from  disease. 

It  sometimes  happens,  the  Eskimo  tell  me,  that  a  family  goes  into  the 
interim'  and  u^mains  for  a  year  or  more,  but  seldom  loses  any  dogs  by 
disease;  they  have  an  idea  that  the  salt-water  has  something  to  do  with 
their  dogs  dying,  for  they  say  they  do  not  die  when  they  live  away 
(Vom  it.  It  does  not  seem  probable,  however,  that  the  disease  wonM 
pi'o\  e  i'outagious,  assigning  either  of  the  above  causes  for  its  origin. 

Again,  is  it  i»ositively  known  that  the  disorder  is  not  communicable 
b>  i>ite  t  \  am  by  no  means  sure  of  this.  The  Eskimo  always  carefully 
i;et  i>ut  of  the  way  of  dogs  aftlicted  in  this  manner,  and  they  toW  me 
thid  if  one  of  tlie  sick  dogs  bit  me  I  would  get  the  same  disorder.  This

The  reindeer  are  fomid  in  consideralde  nuuibers  on  both  side*  of 
berliind  Souinl,  but  by  far  the  j^ix'ater  number  on  the  western  shore.  It 
is  no  rare  instance  to  hnd  them  dining  the  summer  months  on  thf  wa- 
coast;  tJiey  seem  to  delight  in  feeiling  ujwn  the  fuci  exjKwed  vA  low 
tide.  In  winter  they  retire  to  the  larger  valleys  and  go  farther  iulaod^ 
being  sehluiii  seen  on  the  coawt  at  thi^  season  of  the  year. 

The  Eskimo  go  reindecr-hnntiu;;  everj'  summer^  commonly  iluring  i1»p 
months  of  July,  August,  and  September.  At  this  seas*)n  they  niaU 
quite  extensive  excursions  inland,  where  the  deer  are  monn  abuntUut 
and  nJuch  more  easily  procui*ed.  AViihin  tlie  last  few  years  they  an? 
reported  as  less  common  on  the  l*euuy  Teiunsida;  bnt  I  hear  of  no  ajijW- 
eut  diminution  in  their  numbers  to  tlie  west  and  i>onthwc«t,  t»l»mikllv 
towanl  Lake  Kennedy,  where  they  are  reported  as  very  nbuudaut. 

r»efore  the  introflnetion  of  flrearuis  among  the  Eskimo  by  the  wbaW- 
men,  they  took  advantage  of  the  hal»its  of  the  deer  in  coming  down  u> 
the  coast,  and  th-ove  them  into  the  water,  where  they  were  easily  c».y- 
tured  with  a  kyfK'k.  The  Eskimo  brhig  the  skins  back  with  then  to 
their  winter  encampment,  having  cacliwl  the  meat  for  tlie  twteiisihlc 
pui-pose  of  returning  for  it  in  winter*.  This  seldom  happi^us,  howevtff* 
and  the  wolves  generally  make  way  with  it.  It  is  said  that  wh*^nalicrf 
is  first  approached  by  a  hunting  party  that  has  been  living  on  tlie  **• 
coast,  they  scent  them  along  way  otT,  but  that  they  soon  lose  this  jm>w<*' 
the  fact  being,  I  take  it,  that  the  peculiar  odor  of  tin*  salt-waier  ba*  l*** 
the  Eskimo.  During  the  winter  they  lierd  together  in  large  drovw, 
when  a  suitable  valley  is  found  ]>aw  up  the  suow  for  a  t'onsidctalil*] 
extent,  till  it  looks  as  if  a  lieid  of  swine  had  boen  rooting  in  1l4c  ruow. 
These  dixjves  ai*e  continually  lH*set  by x)a(ks  td  wolves,  which  ki-epa'TH"

"When  tlie  eea^sou  fairly  opeus,  the  Eskimo  huntt^r  leave*  thr  wirili*f 
enciimpnient  with  liis  family  and  dog-team  for  some  favorite  rp.stirt  of 
this  sc^al;  he  soon  coustruets  his  .■*uo'w-but,  and  is  as  well  settK'd  a»if  it 
had  been  liis  habitation  for  years,  for  the  seals  he  eatebes  bring  hm

plenty^  so  that  his  wants  are  easily  suiiphed,  and  he  is  contented  uml 
happy. 

The  manner  of  huntinrj  the.yonnjE!:  senl  is  to  allow  a  dd^  to  run  in 
ahead  of  the  hunter,  but  having  a  strong  seal  skin  line  about  his  neck, 
which  the  Eskimo  does  not  let  go  of.  The  dog  scents  the  seal  in  its  ex- 
cavation, which  could  not  have  been  detected  from  the  outside  hy  the 
eye,  and  the  hunter,  by  a  vigorous  jump,  breaks  <loMn  the  covlt l>efore 
the  young  seal  can  reach  its  atluk,  aiul  if  he  be  successful  enough  to  cut 
off  its  retreat,  it  becomes  an  easy  prey  j  otherwise  he  must  use  his  seal- 
ing-hook  very  quickly,  or  his  game  is  gone.  It  sometimes  happens  tbat 
the  hunter  is  unfortunate  enough  to  jump  the  snow  down  directly  over 
the  hole,  and  gets  a  pretty  thorough  wetting.  The  women  often  take 
part  in  this  kind  of  sealing,  and  many  of  them  are  quite  exi)ert.  Tlie 
children  begin  when  they  are  four  or  five  years  old.  The  teeth  and  flip- 
pers of  their  first  catch  are  saved  as  a  trophy  and  worn  alxuit  the  little 
fellow's  neck.  The  next  year  when  he  begins,  this  will  give  liim  ?«"* 
luck,  they  think. 

There  exists  a  considerable  spirit  of  rivalry  among  the  mothers  ii^  ^^ 
whose  offspring  has  done  the  best,  size,  &e.,  considered.  This  nin-'to 
such  a  high  lutch  that  I  havekjioMii  some  mothers  to  catch  these«l,an<l

The  killer  is  a  veiy  common  whale  in  the  Cumbcrhmd  watent.  They 
arrive  with  the  white  whales,  which  tlicy  follow  up  the  fjordK.  Mwj 
thrilling  .stories  are  told  by  the  Eskimo  as  well  as  wlialemen  of  deq>ente 
fights  between  this  animal  and  other  whales.  The  Eskimo  are  mtlwf 
afraid  of  it,  especially  the  solitary  kyacker.  I  have  known  the  white 
whales  to  conie  in  close  proximity  to  the  ship  and  lie  along  herridw? 
when  tbey  were  i)ui*8ued  by  these  voracious  sea-wolves.

bing themselves  on  the  sand-beaehes  for  a  few  days  they  look  much 
anoother  and  their  color  is  a  creamy  white.  The  Eskimo  say  the  males 
ind  females  keep  separate,  but  I  do  not  think  there  is  much  truth  in 
ihis  statement.  Some  think  they  go  on  these  shoals  to  avoid  the  attacks 
if  the  killers,  which  play  sad  havoc  among  them  outside,  but  do  not 
toUow  them  into  shallow  water  j  but  if  this  were  the  reason,  they  would 
take  refuge  in  any  small  bay  or  inlet,  and  not  choose  this  particular  Qord 
year  after  year.  I  found  no  external  parasites,  but  the  internal  ear 
cavity  was  nearly  filled  with  worm-like  animals  nearly  two  inches  long. 
They  were  firmly  attached  by  one  end,  and  stood  erect,  having  some- 
wliat  the  appearance  of  very  coarse  hairs.  While  niigratiug  into  the 
sound  they  always  keep  just  at  the  floe  edge,  and  if  the  ice  is  broken  do 
not  seem  to  like  getting  among  it.  In  the  winter  of  1876-77,  a  couple 
got  belated  and  froze  up  in  the  Kingwah  tide  rifts.  They  were  harpooned 
by  the  Eskimo  in  January.  A  considerable  number  of  these  whales  are 
caught  by  the  Eskimo  from  their  kyacks.

^^rcveuted  from  making  any  esploratious,  except  in  the  immediate  vicin- 
^pty  of  the  harbor,  on  account  of  the  ice,  which  was  driven  northward  by 
the  long-continued  southerly  gales.  Tliis  ice  formed  so  perfect  a  banier

as  pleasant  as  pogLsible,  and  the  ready  j  id  eutertaining  informatiun  on 
many  little  knowii  subjects  jtortaining  to  .Vrette  laattcr.-*. 

I  was  not  a  little  surprised,  as  well  as  dehghted,  to  find  in  Governor 
Fencker  a  person  perfectly  familiar  with  the  birds  of  North  America  as 
well  as  Europe.  During  his  eleven  years'  residence  in  Northern  Green- 
land he  has,  of  coiu^e,  added  much  to  the  knowledge  of  Arctic  ornithol- 
ogy, and  I  was  pleased  to  learn  that  he  contemplated  giving  the  worid 
the  benefit  of  his  observations  in  an  illustrated  work  on  the  birds  of 
Greenland.  Such  a  work,  embellished  with  his  superb  drawings,  can- 
not fail  to  rank  very  high  among  the  ornithological  literature  of  the  age. 

I  have  not  the  least  doubt  that  futiu-e  explorations  in  Cumberland 
waters  will  yield  a  much  richer  harvest  than  I  gathered.  Many  species 
will  be  added,  especially  if  the  Lake  Kennedy  region  is  visited  in  sum- 
mer. 

For  the  benefit  of  any  future  explorer  who  may  visit  this  section  of 
country  I  will  give  what  appears  to  me  the  best  route  and  manner  of 
reaching  Lake  Kennedy.  A  person  wintering  in  Cumberland  will  be 
very  apt  to  be  stationed  either  at  NiantiUc  on  the  western  shore,  or  the 
"^ikkerton  Islands  on  the  easteni,  a  little  farther  to  the  north.  These

Tli«  raven  is  extraonlinarily  common  on  both  ithores  of  CiunbwJauil 
and  on  the  eastern  shore  of  the  Penny  Peninsula.  In  winter  they  coti^ 
gregate  about  the  Eskimo  encampments,  where  they  can  almost  always 
get  dead  dog,  if  nothing  more.  All  the  specimens  collected  by  me  io 
Cumberland  are  of  remarkable  size,  much  larger  than  any  I  ever  saw  ou 
the  Greenland  coast.  The  same  was  remarked  by  Governor  Fencker,  of 
Godhavn,  who  said  he  never  could  see  any  reason  why  the  America 
raven  should  be  called  a  variety  of  the  European  till  he  saw  my  sped; 
mens  from  the  western  coast  of  Davis  Straits. 

When  the  raven  gets  closely  pressed  by  hunger,  he  will  attack  abnoet 
anything  but  man.  Young  reindeer  fall  an  easy  prey  to  them.  When 
they  attack  a  young  deer,  there  are  generally  six  or  seven  in  compttiyi 
and  about  one-half  the  niunbcr  act  as  relays,  so  that  the  deer  is  given 
no  rest.  The  eyes  are  the  first  parts  attacketl,  and  are  generally  speed- 
ily plucked  out,  when  the  poor  animal  will  ,thrash  aud  flounder  about 
till  it  kills  itself.  In  the  capture  of  the  young  of  Pa<jomys  fcetidus  they 
evince  a  considerable  degree  of  intelligence.  I  have,  on  different  occa- 
HiouH,  witnessed  them  cairture  a  yoiuig  seal  that  lay  basking  in  the  sun 
X/&  hole.  The  first  manoeuvre  of  the  ravens  was  to  sail  leisurely 
seal,  gradually  lowering  with  each  circle,  till  at  last  one  of  them

li-avor  to  drag  ur  drive  it  as  lar  away  from  the  hole  us  itoasible.    The 

ktiju^kitig  raveu  sc^'ined  to  Htiike  the  seal  on  the  top  of  the  head  with 

|U  |><)werful  bill,  ami  thus  hreuk  the  teuder  skiill.     lu  two  uistances  I 

lUowed  the  eouibat  to  proceed  until  the  seal  was  kilknl,  and  then  dn>ve 

the  ravens  away.     1  loiuul  no  maiks  on  the  seal,  escei»t  the  blows  on

Deeember  13, 1877,  I  witnessed  a  ver>'  amusuig  chnse  after  a  lApuii 

IgUtciaiiM.    There  were  two  ravens,  and  they  gave  alternate  chase  to  the 

ihare.    Sometimes  tlK'  I'avexL  would  catch  the  hare  by  the  ears,  ami  hare 

ami  raven  would  ndl  down  the  moiintuin  side  together  thirty  or  forty 

f\x{,  till  the  raveu  lost  his  hold,  and  then  its  compnuton  would  be  on 

hand  and  rt*uew  the  attack.    Tbey  kilU'd  the  hare  in  a  short  time,  and 

immediately  began  devouring  it. 

They  are  extix'mt'ly  destrnctive  to  tbe  eggs  and  yomig  of  all  birds 
tbut  have  an  open  nest,  lliey  breed  so  early  in  the  season  that  the 
young  are  fiilly  tiedged  I>y  the  time  the  eidei-s  begui  laying,  lUjd  the 
entire  niven  family  then  take  uj*  their  abode  on  Uie  duck  Islands,  and 
gorge  themselves  with  eggs  and  young.  Nor  is  it  only  the  eggs  tbey 
(at,  but  their  mischievoiLS  nature  mast  out,  and  I  have  seen  them  drive 
tht  dack  from  lier  nest  and  deliber.itely  bi-eak  the  eggs. 

The  Eskimo  accuse  the  niven  of  wiuiiing  the  deer  of  the  approach  of 

tltf  bnnte.r  by  a  iiertdiar  croak  not  uttered  at  other  times.     This  beliis 

I  to  add  otliiuu  to  their  not  over-enviable  ivputation.    They  are  constant 

[^(teudunts  of  the  Eskimo  while  seal-hunting.    If  the  hunter  x>rocuj'es 

riuore  seal  than  he  can  take  back  with  him,  he  will  cover  them  with  snow 

iml  n»turn  for  them;  but  the  oiieration  has  In-en  watched  by  the  black

aule  ucfjuainted  with  the  discovery,  and  as  soon  as  tbe  Eskimo  is  gone 

be  seal  is  exhumed  and  soon  reduceil  to  the  mere  skeleton.    1  tried  ou 

nei-Al  tMMSisions  to  catch  them  by  bailing  a  hook  with  a  piece  of  meat, 

tu«l  carefully  concealing  tbe  string  iu  the  snow.    Tbey  took  hold  of  the 

It  \ery  cautiously,  and  lilted  it  till  they  saw  the  stiing,  and  then  tlew 

iwra>'  in  gi'eat  hast*?. 

Jiui'ing  tbe  winter,  while  making  skeletons,  I  used  to  thi'ow  the  refuse 

[itside  of  the  obsen'utory ;  and  I  have  rt^peatedly  watched  the  raveni» 

tit  aruund  and  wait  till  I  wont  to  dinner,  about  3.30  p.  m.    It  was  tben, 

tf  wmrse,  quite  dark;  but  as  soon  as  I  left  the  hut  thry  came  and  got 

their  meal,  but  were  extremely  cautious,  often  turning  the  pieces  over 


many  times  before  they  swallowed  tliem,  and  even  tbroTviiig  and  to^ie^init 
thein^  to  lie  mtii^  tlifit  there  "was  no  trap  about  it.  Same  piew'^  tltai 
looked  sn^picioua  they  wonld  tiot  eat,  but  wnlked  arotmd  theni  ittn) 
turned  tliem  over,  but  could  not  be  coiivm*;ed  that  there  was  uot  -stjiuv 
trickery  about  them.  I  have  often  foimd  theoa  hunting  about  the  ob- 
Bervatory  fiftt*r  some  sti*ny  serai)?*,  ♦"^pu  on  my  return  firfim  dinner,  v,\wn 
it  wa^  ^  diirk  that  I  eiiuld  in)t  ^*e  them  but  a  few  feet  a^uy.  Ou  moon 
light  nights  1  liave  kno\ni  them  to  make  \isit»  to  the  nibbii^h  pib*  <(«t- 
aide  our  observat^jry  j  btit  snch,  caaes  are  rare,  and  only  at  the  soasot 
■when  they  cannot  get  any  food  ivithont  the  ^^reatest  diffieiUty.  Jit 
Anurtuactook  Llarlwr  they  began  buildiuj:  as  f^arly  as  MsinMi  tM,  but  I 
saw  HOirie  carrying  pieces  of  skin  aud  hair  from  the  Eskimo  ene-amprnMits 
many  days  earlier  than  thisSj  and  irhen  we  bad  a  temperature  of  -V^ 
Fahr. 

They  nest  only  on  the  south  side  of  the  highest  rind  most  Jnarres8JU!* 
cli^s,  ^o  the  Deat  can  aeldom  be  reached,  I  examined  one  nest  built  ou 
a  little  shelf  of  a  high  cliff.  It  was  composed  almast  entirely  of  pipwa 
of  Eskimo  skin  clothing,  among  ivlueh  i^ere  tscattered  tho  birgcr  wing 
Ixmes  of  gulls,  the  larger  jmmaries  of  several  si>ecies  of  binls^  twigs  of 
saliSj  &c.  The  inside  had  a  goo<l  lining  of  Pon  alpina^  and  a  couMilii- 
able  quantity  of  reindeer,  fox,  and  dog  hair,  the  whole  presenting  avpry 
cozy  appearance  indeed.  As  soon  as  the  seals  begin  to  pup  under  the 
snow  on  the  ice,  they  follow  tho  foxes,  which  find  the  seal  aud  drag  them 
out.  Now  the  ravens  can  fare  well  on  the  leavings.  The  Eskimo  firmly 
believe  that  it  does  not  hurt  the  ravens'  eggs  to  freeze.  They  say  the 
shell  cracks,  but  the  inner  membrane  is  very  thick  and  tough.  I  found 
that  the  Scotch  whalers  are  also  of  this  opinion,  some  positively  assert 
ing  that  they  had  known /rorfw  ravens'  eggs  to  hatch! 

The  young  are  full-fledged  by  the  latter  part  of  May.  During  the 
autumn  months  they  feed  largely  on  the  berries  of  Vacchiium  iili^nmHJH 
and  Empetnnn  nignnn.  I  have  often  observed  them  fishing  at  low  tide 
among  the  stones.  I  killed  a  couple  to  ascertain  the  nature  of  the  food 
they  got.  I  found  it  to  be  Coitus  scorpius  and  Liparis  vi(Jffat'in  f ,  with  a 
few  small  crustaceans. 

They  are  resident  in  Cumberland  the  entire  year,  but  api>ear  more 
numerous  in  winter,  from  their  habit  of  staying  about  the  Eskimo  en- 
campments. 

The  raven  is  considered  as  worse  than  useless  by  the  Eskimo.  They 
make  no  use  of  them  except  to  wipe  the  blood  and  grease  from  their 

luds  and  iiwifc  vritb  xtie  feathers.

Breeds  iu  Kingwah  and  Kluguite  Fjords,  and  probably  in  other  suit- 
able localities  on  both  shores  of  Cumberland  Sound.  Considerable  num- 
bers were  observed  along  the  beach  near  Nubojaut,  on  the  west  shore, 
in  July ;  tbey  were  in  all  probability  breeding.  We  were  cruising  close 
to  shore,  but  I  could  not  land. 

36.  Tringa  maritima,  Uriiuu. 

"Sigereak/'  CtimlMTland  Eskimo.     " Sarbai^sook,"  Greenlauders. 

The  purple  sandpiper  is  the  first  wader  to  arrive  in  spring  and  the 
last  to  leave  in  autumn.  The  4th  of  June  is  the  earliest  date  I  met  them 
at  Aunanactook;  this  was  during  a  heavy  snow-storm,  and  the  earliest 
date  possible  that  thej'  could  have  found  any  of  the  rocks  bare  at  low  tide. 
The  dock  lit  on  the  top  of  one  of  the  small  islands  in  the  harbor,  and 
sheltered  themselves  from  the  storm  by  creeping  behuul  and  underneath 
ledges  of  rocks  j  they  then  huddled  together  like  a  flock  of  quails  iu 
winter.  I  have  often  noticed  the  same  habit  with  them  in  late  autunui, 
while  they  Mere  waiting  for  low  tide.  They  remained  in  tho  vicinity  of 
Anuauactook  tiU  ^ovem\>et, — ^a%  V^ta  a^s  they  could  find  any  exposed

shore  at  low  tiflej  were  very  common  in  all  the  localities  that  I  visited 
on  Cumberland  Island.  Saw  a  good  many  on  the  Greenland  coast.  It 
is  said  that  some  remain  in  the  fjords  of  South  Greenland  all  winter. 

They  seem  completely  devoid  of  fear,  and  can  almost  be  caught  with 
the  hands.  Although  such  lovers  of  the  rocky  sea-shore,  they  nest  on 
the  borders  of  fresh-water  lakes.  Hundreds  were  breeding  a  few  miles 
from  our  winter  harbor,  but  it  was  impossible  to  reach  the  mainland  on 
account  of  the  treacherous  condition  of  the  floating  ice.  The  si>ecimens 
collected  by  me  on  Cumberland  Island  difler  so  much  from  the  Alaskan, 
that  I  conjecture  the  probability  of  a  western  variety  when  a  series  can 
be  brought  together  for  comparison. 

By  the  latter  days  of  June  very  fevr  were  to  be  seen  on  the  sea-shore, 
they  having  gone  inland  to  breed. 

They  appear  very  sociable,  and  when  a  large  flock  is  together  they 
keep  up  a  lively  twitter,  by  no  means  uui>leasant.  As  the  breeding 
season  approaches,  the  males  have  a  xieculiar  cry,  resembling  somewhat 
that  of  Actiturus  hartramius,  but  lower  and  not  so  prolonged,  "^'hen 
this  note  is  uttered  they  assume  a  very  dignified  strut,  and  often  raise 
the  wings  up  over  the  back  and  slowly  foM  them  again,  like  the  upland 
plover.  After  the  breeding  season  commences  very  few  are  seen  on  the 
sea-shore  till  the  young  are  full-grown.  Tliey  are  somewhat  crepuscular 
in  their  habits. 

37.  Trlnga  subarqttata,  (Ooukl)  Temm. 

Not  uncommon  in  North  Greenland.  Eggs  were  procured  at  Chris- 
tianshaab,  Greenland,  through  the  kindness  of  Governor  Edgar  Fencker. 
Xot  observed  on  any  i)art  of  Cumberland  that  I  visited. 

38.  Tringa  oanutUB,  Linnd. 

A  small  flock  lit  on  the  schooner's  deck  in  November  after  the  harbor 
was  frozen  over.  Saw  none  in  the  spring  or  summer.  Seem  to  be  quite 
common  in  North  Greenland,  but  probably  do  not  nest  south  of  lat 
70ON. 

39.  Calidrls  airenaria,  Liuu. 

One  small  flock  in  September,  1877,  at  Niantilic;  no  specimens  were 
procured.

.   Two  godwits  were  seen  near  Cape  Edwards,  on  the  west  coast  of 
Cumberland  Sound,  in  September,  1877,  but  I  could  not,  with  certainty 
ascertain  the  8i)ecies.

ou  the  Greenland  coast  as  far  north  as  Upernavik.  The  flesh  of  this 
duck  on  the  coast  of  Greenland  is  scarcely  fit  to  eat,  being  almost  as 
rank  as  a  loon*s.

49.  Bncepbala T 

Flocks  of  whistlers  were  observed  oi»  three  occasions  m  May;  but  I 
could  not  with  certainty  identify  the  species,  as  none  were  killed.  B, 
islamlica  is  quite  common  in  the  Godhavn  district  on  the  coast  of 
Greenland  J  breeds  near  Christianshaab. 

50.  Hiatzionioos  torqaatus,  (Linu.)  Bp. 

."Tomauiartook,"  Greenlandrrs. 

Three  examples  seen,  and  one  killed  at  Anuanactook.  Not  uncom- 
mon hi  the  Godhavn  district  on  the  Greenland  coast. 

51.  Harelda  glaoialis,  (Liun.)  Lead). 

"Agingak,"  Cumberland  Eskimo.  "Aglek,"  GreeulandorM. 
Amved  at  the  head  of  Cumberland  during  the  latter  days  of  May. 
As  soon  as  there  was  extensive  open  water  they  became  quite  numer- 
ous, and  their  loud  and  incessant  cries  could  be  heard  at  any  hour  out  of 
the  twenty-four.  They  nest  on  the  small  rocky  islands,  especially  about 
the  Greater  Kingwah  Fjord,  but  singly,  and  not  in  colonies.  They  are 
gregarious  when  they  first  anive,  but  soon  pair  and  scatter.  Common  on 
the  whole  Greenland  coast,  and  breed  fai*  to  the  uorth.  These  ducks 
are  the  noisiest  binls  for  their  size  I  have  ever  met.  During  the  breed- 
ing plumage,  scarcely  any  two  males  cau  be  found  that  are  precisely 
alike. 

52.  Polysticta  Btelleri,  (Pall.)  Eyton. 

A  beautiful  adult  male  was  shot  in  Disko  Fjord  in  August,  1878.  The 
specimen  is  now  in  the  collection  of  Governor  Kdgar  Feucker  of  God- 
havn. During  the  time  we  were  blockaded  by  the  ice-jam  at  Aunanac- 
took  Harbor,  in  Cumberland,  I  saw  three  or  four  of  these  eiders.  At 
one  time  a  8ui)erb  specimen  sat  for  hours  on  a  cake  of  ice  but  a  short 
distance  from  the  ship ;  but  I  coidd  not  reach  it  on  account  of  the  break- 
ing ice.  I  watched  him  a  long  time  with  a  good  glass,  and  there  is  no 
question  of  its  iilentity.  lu  late  autumn  I  saw  some  that  I  think  were 
of  this  species. 

53.  BomateriamoUisBlina,  (Liuu.)  Lcaeh. 

"Metuk,"  Cumberlaml  Eskimo.     "Mettck"  ami  "Amaulik,"  Green lauilcvs. 

This  eider  is  one  of  the  commonest  birds  in  Cumberland,  and  the  only 
species  that  congregates  together  in  any  considerable  numbers  to  breed. 
They  are  at  all  times  gi^egarious.  The  old  males  separate  from  the 
females  and  young  as  soon  as  the  breeding  season  is  over,  and  assemble 
by  themselves  in  large  flocks.     They  also  migrate  southward  nuicb

taken  shells  from  the  eesophagus  more  than  two  inches  in  len^b;  from 
a  single  bird  I  have  taken  out  forty-three  shells,  vai-jing  from  one- 
sixteenth  to  two  inches  in  length.  TI»e  adult  birds  in  spring  did  not 
seem  to  be  quite  so  particular;  in  them  I  found  almost  all  the  coramou 
forms  of  marine  invertebrates,  and  sometimes  even  a  few  fish  (iijwW*, 
and  the  young  of  Coitus  scorpuis).  * 

I5y  the  tirst  week  of  June  they  were  abundant;  enormous  flocks  would 
congregate  on  an  ice-fleld  and  hold  high  carnival.  I  have  watched  sut'li 
gatherings  with  a  great  deal  of  interest.  When  thus  assembled,  some 
old  veteran  would  make  himself  conspicuous,  and  jabfter  away  at  a  ter- 
rible rate,  often  silencing  the  gi'cater  portion  of  the  rest,  who  appoiin^l 
to  listen  for  a  short  time,  when  the  entire  crowd  wouUl  break  out,  eaiK 
one  apparently  expressing  his  or  her  opinion  on  the  subject.  Thenr 
always  seemed  to  be  the  best  of  good  feeling  in  those  meetings,  ho^^- 
ever,  and  all  points  were  ai>parently  settled  to  every  one's  satisfaction. 
I  have  often  Iain  liehind  a  rock  on  their  breeding-islands  and  watolie*! 
them  for  a  long  time.  On  one  occasion  we  disturbed  a  hirge  colony, an*! 
the  ducks  all  left  the  nests.    1  sent  u»y  Eskimos  away  toanotlier  island, 


I  ivmained  bebiud  to  see  how  tlie  dm-ks  would  iwt  wlieji  they 
iwl.  As  sooa  as  the  boat  wns  gone  they  began  to  retmu  to  their

when  suddenly  a  female  woidd  eome  to  the  Kiime  nest  nnd  infonn  liim 
that  he  had  made  a  mistake^ — it  was  not  his  nest.  lie  started  n]>,  looked 
hlankly  iU'ouncl,  discovered  Jiis  mistake,  and  with  an  awkward  anil  very 
IndicDHiH  l>ow,  acrompanied  ^itli  some  suitiible  expUmation,  I  Hnppose^ 
he  waddled  off  in  search  of  his  own  home,  where  he  found  his  faithful 
mate  installed.  Xow  followed  an  explanation  that  seemed  to  be  hngely 
ctijdVixl  by  all  in  tlie  vicinity.  A  pretty  lively  conversation  was  kept 
np,  [irobably  on  the  purport  of  our  visit,  as  they  seemed  mtich  excited. 
1  could  siJiirc  no  more  time  to  watch  them,  and  crept  out  from  my  hiding- 
place  into  full  \iew  of  all^  aiul  a  look  of  greater  disgust  and  astonish- 
ment than  these  birds  gave  me  is  dillirnlt  to  inmgine;  they  evidently 
rpgardeil  such  umlerband  work  beneath  the  dijrnity  of  a  human  being, 
and  j)roV>ably  nitcd  me  woi*fle  than  a  gidl  or  raven.  Smi  sudden  and

arcticn  and  Cochlearia  offichuth's  Mcattored  about,  and  these  contain  tlie 
grcoter  nnml>er  of  nests.  Kach  nest  has  a  little  circle  of  green  sod  ab<mt 
it.  which  is  manured  every  year  and  becomes  quite  luxuriant.  These 
monnds  arc  sometimes  a  foot  high  and  as  mnch  in  diameter,  having  been 
ni»cd  as  a  nest  for  matiy  years  in  successi*)n.  Very  little  i-epairing  is 
necessary  to  iit  tlic  nest  for  the  reception  of  the  eggs, — meiX'ly  a  littlo 
grass  or  moss.  But  little  down  is  used  till  the  full  comjilement  of  eggs 
iJi  laid.  The  nests  are  often  so  close  together  that  it  is  impossible  to 
walk  without  stepping  on  them.  A  nest  seldom  contains  more  than  five 
eggs,  olten  three  or  four,  and  1  never  saw  as  many  as  six  but  twice.

nearly  all  points,  and  from  Belle  Isle  to  Hudson's  Straits  they  were 
abundant.  They  nest  about  Xugumeute  and  Grinnell  Bay,  bat  not  in

common,  and  nest  at  the  mouth  of  ICxeter  Sound  and  at  ShauJneer.  I 
have,  however,  nowhere  found  them  so  very  common  as  on  the  soathem

been  many  hundred  pairs  nesting.  Their  breeding-place  was  an  inac- 
cessible clift',  about  half  a  mile  from  the  seashore.  The  greater  number 
of  the  bir<ls  nesting  here  were  in  the  plumage  described  in  Dr.  Coues'a

also  a  good  many  birds  that  were  uiucolored  blackish  brown  all  over,

A  gi'eat  many  of  these  birds  nest  in  Cumberland  on  what  the  Eskimo

portunity of  seeing  how  tbe^c  young  Juipefuln  are  iuBtmcted  iu  egg-

iu  it,  and  the  young  one  just  helped  himself  at  his  leisure.  After  the 
young  are  full-fledged,  these  birds  are  eminently  gregarions,  and  are 
often  seen  feeding  iu  considerable  tiocks.  The  flesh  is  highly  esteemed 
by  the  Ksltimo;  wr  found  the  young  l.»y  no  means  despic;ible  fiMnl. 

The  Eskimo  use  the  skin  with  the  feHthei-s  on  for  a  pait  of  their  wiii- 
ter^s  foot  gear.  They  are  exti*aordinarily  greedy  and  voraciousj  nothiufj 
ill  the  animal  kingdom  seems  to  come  amiss  to  tbem,  I  have  seen  a

for  tbem.  though  they  ma<le  desi>enito  attempts  to  get  ofl'  some  snuill 
pieces,  which  they  would  have  eaten  had  they  8uc^eede<l.  Eggs* 
young  or  disableil  birds,  0>iih,  and  crustaceans  arc  their  common  fait*. 
They  are  also  very  fond  of  fee<liiTg  upon  seal  carcasses.  The  lust  plum- 
age of  the  young  is  mueh  lighter  than  that  of  a  yearling  bird.  This  is 
just  the  !)t»posite  of  L,  hucftpterusy  they  iH'ing  the  darkest  when  young.

So  far  as  I  am  aware  this  is  the  first  instance  on  record  of  this  l«rd 
being  taken  on  the  Atlantic  coast.  Tliey  are  quite  common  in  the 
upper  Cumberland  waters,  where  they  breed.  Arrive<l  with  the  open-

shelving  rocks  on  high  clifls.  Two  pairs  nested  very  near  oiu"  harbor; 
but  the  ravens  tore  the  nest  down  and  destroyed  the  eggs.  Only  a  sin-

Wn.s  first  observed  off  Resohition  Island  in  the  first  dsiys  of  Sejitrm- 
ber,  1877.  They  were  then  busily  engaged  fishing  and  carrying  the  fish 
up  the  cliffs  to  the  young,  which  were  not  yet  in  the  water.  They  are 
most  expert  divers  and  are  often  seen  fishing  where  tliere  is  a  consider- 
able depth  of  water.  I  once  shot  an  adult  female  that  was  carrying  a 
little  Morrhua  7  inches  in  length  uj)  to  her  young.  This  was  on  the  19th 
of  September,  and  the  young  were  not  more  than  three-fomlhs  grown 
at  this  date.  I  visited  no  locality  either  on  Cumberland  or  on  the  Green- 
land coast  where  this  bird  was  not  abundant.  Some  sections  are  of 
coiu'se  more  suitable  than  others,  and  here  they  are  very  uumeroiis. 
They  began  to  change  into  the  winter  plumage  in  the  latter  part  of  Sep- 
1  ember.  Some  of  the  earlier-hatched  yoiuig  were  nuich  earlier  than 
this,  but  the  adults  were  not  in  i>erfect  winter  dress  till  the  middle  of 
October.  They  remained  about  our  winter  harbor  as  long  as  there  was 
(il>eu  water,  and  even  one  or  two  staid  in  the  Iviugwah  rifts  all  winter. 
Ill  spring  they  returned  as  soon  as  there  was  oi)en  water.  About  the 
Southern  Cumberland  waters  some  remain  all  winter, — the  Eskimo 
say  only  the  young  birds.  At  iVimauactook  Harbor  they  began  nest- 
ing about  Jmie  25.    The  normal  number  of  eggs  is  two ;  very  rarelf

rays,  instead  of  piu'suinjLr  the  horizontal  of  the  median  line  of  the  Ixxly, 

are  slightly  raised,  giving  the  fin  a  peculiar  shape,  which  nmy  iwrhaps 

be  due  to  outside  circumstances,  or  may  be  characteristic  of  the  adult.

I  have  followed  the  lead  of  Malmgreu*  and  Collettt  in  employing  the 
name  Giidus  saida  Lepech.  Professor  CoUett  has  made  a  direct  com- 
parison of  examples  of  this  form  of  cod  from  Archangel,  Greenland, 
Spitzbergen,  and  Xova  Zembla,  and  he  believes  the  ^/flrw  of  Sabine, 
1824,  Fabricil  of  Kichardson,  183C,  and  agilis  of  Reinhardt,  1838,  to  be 
identical  with  G.  saida.  The  only  diflerence  that  he  obsen^ed  is  that 
imlividuals  from  the  White  Sea  have,  as  a  rule,  darker  fins  than  the 
rest,  which  he  justly  attributes  to  a  difference  in  the  surroundings  of 
the  bottom  in  the  different  places.  They  agree  in  squamatiou,  structure 
of  the  teeth,  position  of  the  anus,  and  in  every  i)articular  of  the  structure 
of  the  body  so  completely  that  they  cannot  possibly  be  separated.^

elaimed  by  Br.  Gimther;  but  after  exaniining  many  epecinien.s  of  the 

bittor  fipecies  and  ooniprtrii];^  tborri  ^^itli  ^Ir.  Iv«nilieu's  esamiiles,  I  pn-frr 
to  consider  these  distmct  from  G.  morrhua  and  identical  with  Richfird- 
son's  species.  It  may  be  that  a  larger  series  would  lead  me  to  tbe  same 
conclusion  reached  by  Dr.  Gunther.  I  have  studied  all  tbe  common  cod 
in  the  United  States  National  Museum,  a  very  large  series,  recently  in- 
creased by  the  addition  of  a  monster  weighing  100  pounds,  and  find  that 
Oadus  offac  is  distinguished  from  O.  morrhua  by  several  important  char- 
acters, among  which  are  (1)  a  more  slender  caudal  peduncle ;  (2)  a  longer 
barbel ;  (3)  a  larger  eyej  (4)  a  greater  distance  between  tbe  eyes;  (5)  a 
longer  pectoral ;  and  (C)  the  more  advanced  position  of  the  ventrals. 
These  differences  may  be  seen  in  the  tables  of  measurements,  in  which 
are  given  the  proportions  of  parts  of  the  body  in  hundredths  of  the  total 
length  without  the  caudal. 

The  general  color  of  Mr.  KumUeu's  specimens  is  very  dark  brown,  and 
the  sides  are  marbled  with  white.

A  single  individual  of  this  species,  originally  described  from  North- 
umberland Sound,  was  found  by  Lieutenant  Mintzer,  and  presented  by 
him  to  the  United  States  National  Museum.  From  the  api)earance  of 
the  specimen  it  must  have  been  picked  up  dead ;  but  it  is  in  a  good  state

of  preservation.  Ah  there  Ih  little  on  reconl  concerning  the  species,  nnd 
the  example  uii<lcr  coiisidorntion  is  much  hirger  thnn  the  t.xTJCR,  an<l, 
lile  it  agiees  iu  all  iiui)ortant  iiai'liculai's  with  Kichanltson's  ilescrip-

Tor  by  the  ilifference  hi  size. 

Like  all  the  other  described  species  of  Lycotlejt^  except  L.  paxilhiH 
Goode  &  Beau,  of  which  I  have  kuowledpe,  the  width  of  the  body  at  the 
ivent  is  ver>-  much  less  than  just  behin<l  the  pectorals,  and  the  height 

tthe  body  at  the  same  poiut  is  also  considerably  less  than  it  is  in  the 
lerior  part  of  the  bmly;  in  other  words,  the  body  tai)eT8  decidedly, 
d  the  tail  Is  much  com[)resHed. 

kDescrijttion, — The  length  of  the  example  is  430  miUimetres  (17  English 
bhe*i).    Scales  are  entirely  wanting. 

Tlie  greatest  height  of  the  body  (at  the  i)ectorals)  is  contained  S  times 
and  its  greatest  width  (just  behind  the  pectorals)  9  times  iu  the  total 

(igth.  The  width  at  the  vent  is  contained  8  times  iu  the  length  uf  the 
ad,  aud  tvice  in  the  length  of  the  longest  dorsal  my.  The  height  at 
B  ventraU  aliout  equals  tlie  height  of  the  botly  at  tlie  pectorals.  The 
ight  of  the  body  at  the  vent  equals  half  the  greatest  width  of  the  head, 
is  contained  11.J  timcii  iu  the  total  length. 

le  bead  is  very  large,  its  length  being  ^  of  the  total,  and  its

Mr.  Kuuilicu  collected  tliis  individual  on  the  25tb  of  September,  1S77, 
at  Mbicb  time  its  colors  must  have  been  exceedingly  brilliant,  judging 
from  tbc  traces  which  still  remain.  He  states  in  his  notes,  that  it  hvcs 
**  among  the  rocks  at  the  bottom,  feeding  largely  on  Crustacea  and  md- 
lusks."  Cottiis  scorpiiifi^  and  the  subspecies  (/rdnlandicus,  but  especially 
the  latter,  farmed  an  inipoitant  part  of  the  food  supply  of  the  expedi- 
tion. 

These  specimens  of  Coitus  scor2)itfs  are  clearly  identical  with  Scamli- 
na^-iau  exami)les  of  the  same  species,  us  may  be  seen  from  the  tables  of 
mcasiiroments  which  follow.  In  all  the  tables  it  must  be  remembeml 
that  the  luiit  of  length  is  the  total  length  without  caudal.  So  far  as  I 
know,  the  true  Cottitu  scorptutf  has  not  previously  been  found  on  the 
east  coast  of  America.  A  young  individual,  catalogue-number  10374, 
collected  at  Eastport,  Me.,  by  the  United  States  Fish  Commission,  may 
be  compared  with  one  a  trifle  larger,  catalogue-number  22060,  which

was  presented  to  tUe  United  States  National  Museum  by  Pix)f.  Robert 
Collett  The  agreement  between  these  two  in  all  essential  ijarticulars 
is  very  striking.  We  may  safely  record  this  species,  then,  at  least  as 
for  south  as  Eastport.  The  true  Coitus  scorpius  may  be  distinguished 
from  the  sub-species  which  follows  by  its  naiTower  interorbital  distance, 
and  the  lesser  length  of  the  dorsal  spines,  particularly  the  anterior  ones.

CotUts  ociodemmpiiiosm  Mitcliill  is  kuown  from  Halifax  on  the  ooith 
to  Beesley'a  Poiut,  Xew  Jersey,  on  the  south,  whei'e  it  was  coUeuteJ  by 
Prof.  B.  F.  Baiixl  in  1854.  It  is  eonsiiliaied  a  shallow-water  si^ecies;  boi 
the  Umted  States  Fish  Commission  has  a  si>ecimen  ft-om  OS  fatbom^^  in 
the  Gulf  of  Sliiine,  where  the  temperature  was  ahout  420  Fahr.  The 
greater  poition  of  the  examples  were  fi'oni  10  fathoms  or  less. 

Add  to  these  Cottun  ttcorpioides  of  Fabricius,  atul  it  will  coiapleti"  liie 
list  of  Eastern  North  Amerieau  specks  of  the  genua  Cottutt  so  far  w 
known* 

As  already  ijitimated,  Cotim  scorplus  sub*specie8  ffroHlandkttg  is  quite 
readily  separated  fi^m  the  t^^pieal  C.  ncorjnus  by  its  wider  interorbltfil 
distance  and  its  higher  ii^ipinous  dorsal,  which  differences  are  best  eiem-

In  email  streams  on  the  sides  of  Oosooadlin  Mountain,  and  in  a  little 
pond  on  the  top,  1,500  feet  above  tide-level,  i\Ir.  Kundien  collected 
mimerous  examples  of  a  many-spined  stickleback,  which  resembles  Gaa- 
teroaieus  pungitius  Linn.,  in  most  particulars,  but  may  be  readily  distin- 
guished from  it  by  its  very  short  ventral  ftinnca.  The  tables  of  measure- 
ments and  radial  formula;  appended  will  show  other  differences,  which 
are,  however,  not  so  important. 

Description. — ^The  gi'eatest  lieijj;ht  of  body  is  contained  b%  times  in  its 
length  to  origin  of  middle  caudal  rays  (in  gravid  females,  4^  times) ;  the 
greatest  width,  10  times  (in  gravid  females,  8  times).  The  height  at  ven- 
trals  is  contained  5J  times  in  length  of  body  (in  gi'a\id  females,  5  times  or 
shghtly  less).  The  least  height  of  tail  equals  half  the  length  of  the  first 
dorsal  spine.    The  length  of  caudal  i)edHncle  is  ^  of  length  of  body. 

The  length  of  head  equals  4  times  the  length  of  upper  jaw,  and  is 
from  J  to  -2^-  of  length  of  body.  The  greatest  width  of  head  nearly  ecpials 
length  of  middle  caudal  rays.  The  distance  between  the  ej'es  e(|ua1s 
the  IcDgth  of  snout,  which  equals  the  length  of  antecedent  si)ine  of  soft 
dorsal.  The  length  of  the  operculum  equals  the  length  of  ventral  spine, 
"which  is  slightly  less  than  a  third  of  length  of  head.  The  length  of 
mandible  equals  the  long  diameter  of  the  orbit. 

The  distance  of  the  spinous  dorsal  from  the  snout  is  from  J  to  /„  of 
length  of  body,  and  is  almost  uniformly  less  than  its  length  of  base.  The 
first  and  second  spines  of  the  dorsal  are  equal  in  length,  and  are  alnmt 
3  as  long  as  the  venti*al  spine.  The  last  spine  of  the  dorsal  is  slightly 
less  than  the  first.  The  antecedent  spine  of  the  second  dorsal  is  some- 
■wUat  longer  than  the  first  of  the  spinous  dorsal,  and  half  as  long  as  the 
first  ray  following  it.  The  first  ray  of  the  soft  dorsal  is  contained  8.} 
times  in  length  of  body,  and  is  three  times  as  long  as  the  last  ray. 

The  distance  of  the  anal  from  the  tii>  of  snout  equals  I  of  length  of 
lx)dy ;  its  length  of  base  is  twice  the  length  of  its  first  and  longest  ray, 
and  slightly  less  than  J  of  length  of  bod3'.  Tlie  anal  spine  is  half  as 
long  as  the  first  anal  ray  (in  young  individuals,  5). 

The  length  of  the  middle  caudal  rays  is  contained  8J  times  in  length 
of  body ;  the  length  of  external  rays,  7}  times. 

The  distance  of  the  x>ectoral  from  the  tip  of  snout  is  contained  3J^  times

water  stickleback  fi-om  Maine,*  which  resembles  G.  pxtngitUis  in  many 
respects,  but  has  only  2  dorsal  si)ine8.  The  number  of  dorsal  spines 
■would  seem,  therefore,  to  be  certainly  of  not  more  than  si>ecific  Aalue. 

Gasterosteus  nebiilostis  seems  to  me  to  be  separated  from  G.  inmgiims 
by  no  constant  character,  but  onlj'  by  its  habitat.  Gastcrosfeiis  mainensia 
is  identical  with  G.  pungttius. 

Apeltes  (DeKay)  Jordau  is  well  separated  from  Gasterosfetis  by  the 
structure  of  its  pubic  bones. 

The  United  States  National  Museum  has  received  from  tlie  Musee 
d'Histoire  Xaturelle,  of  Paris,  one  of  the  tj'pes  of  Gaaterosteua  hlanchunli 
Sauvage,  described  from  specimens  sent  from  Boston,  United  States. 
This  si)ecies  is  our  common  many-spmed  stickleback,  (?.  pitngitiiis,  as  will 
appear  from  tlie  table  of  measurements,  and  the  name  must  be  regarded 
as  a  synonym  of  the  latter.  It  is  worthy  of  remark  in  passing  that  the 
shape  of  the  post-pectoral  plate  in  species  of  GasferosleuSy  which  lias 
been  emi)loyed  as  an  important  diagnostic  clmracter,  i.s  so  variable,  even 
on  the  two  sides  of  the  same  fish,  that  it  is  not  to  be  depended  upon. 

The  sticklebacks  of  eastern  Xorth  America,  so  far  as  observed  be  me, 
may  all  be  referred  to  the  genera  Apeltes  and  Gaaterosteus, 

Tlie  basis  of  the  foregoing  description  of  tlie  stickleback  collected  by 
Mr.  Kumlien  is  the  table  of  measurements  which  follows.  Only  8  esam- 
l)les  were  measured,  but  these  show  the  extremes  of  variation  in  the 
numerous  specimens  secured.  In  none  of  the  individuals  does  the  length 
of  the  ventral  spine  exceed  one-third  of  the  length  of  the  head. 

Mr.  Kumlien  has  sent  me  the  following  notes  on  the  species:  "The 
Qasteroateua  was  taken  from  a  pond  more  than  a  thousand  feet  above 
the  sea  on  the  mountain  side.  Said  i^onds  were  not  over  18  inches  deep, 
and  of  course  freeze  solid  in  winter.  lu  fact,  there  was  but  very  little 
water  at  the  time  I  procured  the  fish.  It  is  impossible  that  they  could 
have  come  up  from  below,  as  the  poud  emirties  by  a  series  of  perpen<licular 
falls,  some  of  them  30  feet  or  more.  In  my  note-book  I  find  that  they 
were  light  greenish  above,  barred  with  dusky  brown  and  black ;  beneath 
white,  irregularly  blotched  with  black.  Caudal  pinkish.  Male  (?)  with 
a  crimson  spot  at  base  ^f  pectoi-al  fin.''

LIST  OF  SHELLS  OBTAINED  BT  MR.  LCDWIG  KUMLIEN,  NATUEALIST  TO  THE  HOWGATE 
EXPEDITION,  1877-78,  AT  POINTS  IN  CUMBERLAND  SOrND,  ARCTIC  REGIOKS,  WEST 
EROM  BAFFIN'S  BAY. 


By  W.  H.  Pall. 


The  locality  at  which  the  schooner  Florence,  conveying  the  paxty, 
made  her  winter  quarters,  according  to  Mr.  Kumlien*s  report,  was  not 
favorable  for  extensive  collections  in  any  department. 

The  prevalence  of  ice  in  the  irregularities  of  the  sound  and  other  cir- 
cumstances, especially  the  abnipt  and  rocky  character  of  the  shores, 
rendered  it  difficidt  to  obtain  specimens  of  invertebrates,  which  in  point 
of  fact  were  all  collected  at  a  few  small  areas  of  beach,  some  of  which 
were  a  long  distance  from  winter  quarters. 

Nevertheless,  when  the  difficulties  are  considered,  the  results  are  very 
creditable  to  Mr.  Kumlien's  energy  and  perseverance,  and  are  not  with- 
out value  for  the  study  of  geographical  distribution. 

The  number  of  specimens  is  small;  but  twenty-four  species  are  rei>re- 
sented,  some  of  which  were  also  obtained  by  a  party  luider  Lieuteuant 
Mintzer,  U.  S.  X.,  who  explored  for  minerals  in  nearly  the  same  region 
a  year  or  two  previous  to  the  visit  of  the  Florence. 

As  was  to  be  expected,  none  of  the  species  are  new:  ModioUirUi  Jala 
Fabr.,  whicli  has  almost  been  lost  sight  of  by  naturalists,  and  Glt/ci- 
meris  Ktirriana  Dkr.,  a  species  whose  validity  has  been  much  questione<l, 
were  among  the  most  interesting  forms  obtained. 

The  species  are  as  follows  (those  with  an  asterisk  are  represented  by 
only  one  or  two  specimens,  and  only  Buccinum  grmlandicuin  was  at  all 
numerous): 

* Ommastreplim  iUecehrosa,  Lesueur. 

*  Buceinum  glaeiaUj  Linne. 

*  Buccinum  ciliatumj  Fabr.,  var.  MoUerij  Eve. 
*Buc€inum  humplireyHlanum^  Bennett  (probably).

Several  spe<'imena  occurred  on  the  roots  of  Laminarioj  7  fathoms,  An- 
aanactook  Harbor,  May  19, 1878  (lot  597).     Some  agree  with  the  var. 
tuMota  Smitt  [Lepntlia  amata  Johnst.),  but  in  most  cases  there  ai^  well- 
Icveloped  calcareons  i)apiUm  near  the  sides  of  the  apertures  as  in  the 
rur*  pajfillata. 
I  adopt  the  generic  name  Ettcharina  given  by  Mihie  Edwanls  to  a 
mji,  including  the  present  species,  in  1835  (in  LamaiX'k,  An.  sans 
^ert.,  ed.  2,  vol.  ii.  pp.  218,  230),  and  for  which  ho  cited  as  the  type  E. 
tlgatis  (Moll.).    Dr.  Gray  (List  Brit.  Aniujals  in  British  Museum,  i>, 

1124, 184^)  also  restricted  the  name  to  the  same  and  closely  allied  spe* 
fcies.     Dr.  Smitt,  however,  united  this  group  with  mppoihoa^  which 
Kems  to  be  a  sufficienty  distinct  genus. 
I  The  restricted  genns  EscharhM,  as  I  limit  it,  is  characterized  by  the 
■rell-marked  median  sinus  of  the  nijeitures  of  the  zoscia,  together  with 
pie  lateral  avicuhiria,  usually  develojied  near  one  or  both  sides  of  the 
apertures.    The  mode  of  growth  is  usually  Lepralia-likc,  but  may  also 
^^»e  Escharine.     It  is  therefore  e<]uivalent,  or  nearly  so,  to  the  genos 
w^fchiznjiordhj  recently  pn>posed  by  Uincks  for  the  same  typical  species. 
The  genus  Eitcharoidcs,  proposed  by  Edwards  in  the  same  work,  has 
lH»en   incorrectly  used  by  some  writers;   for  although  Gniy  re- 
trictcd  it,  in  1848,  to  one  of  the  original  species,  E.  ntccinca  (Abildg.), 
lus  making  it  eqiiivalent,  in  part,  to  J>{ni'opora  Smith,  the  last  named 
iter  has  applied  it  to  a  group,  typified  by  E.  roHucea^  not  inelutled  by 
[wards.    As  the  name  should  l>e  restored,  in  accordance  with  Gray'a 
Imitation,  I  ha\'e  proposed  els^'whcn*  the  naunr  KmhnropHitt,  as  a  substi»

1.  C.  Hecia,  Lefebyre. 

One  female  was  taken  at  Quickstep  Harbor,  Gulf  of  Cumberland,  lati- 
tude 66°.  This  Bpeeies  inliabits  Soutliem  Greenland  and  regions  to  the 
westward.  It  has  been  attributed  to  Iceland,  but,  as  is  now  supposed, 
erroneously.    It  also  inhabits  Southern  Lapland. 

Mr.  H'Lachlan,  in  his  Report  on  the  butterflies  collected  by  the  recent 
British  Arctic  Expedition,  states  that  C  ffaia  was  taken  as  fkr  north  as 
latitude  81°  45',  at  Hayes  Sound ;  and  he  gives  information  obtained 
from  Captain  Feilden,  B.  N.,  attached  to  the  Alert  as  naturalist,  on  the 
habits  of  Lepidoptera  in  these  high  latitudes.  **  During  the  short  period 
when  there  is  practically  no  night,  butterflies  are  continuously  on  the 
wing,  supposing  the  sun's  surface  not  to  be  obscured  by  clouds  or  pass- 
ing snow  showers.  That  about  one  month  in  each  year  is  the  longest 
period  in  which  it  is  possible  for  these  insects  to  appear  in  the  perfect 
state,  and  that  about  six  weeks  is  the  limit  of  time  allowed  to  plant- 
feeding  larvfe,  during  all  the  rest  of  the  year  the  land  being  under  snow 
and  ice."  Mr.  M'Lacblan  doubts  if  there  is  sufficient  time  in  each  year 
for  the  preparatory  stages  of  the  butterfly, — egg,  larva,  and  chrysalis, — 
and  is  disposed  to  think  that  more  than  one  year  is  necessary.  In  the 
northern  United  States,  the  larvie  of  Colias  frequently  pass  the  winter 
when  half-grown,  or  even  younger,  and  I  think  it  probable  this  is  the  habit 
of  Seda,  From  two  to  three  weeks  at  the  end  of  the  short  Arctic  summer, 
and  less  time  at  the  beginning  in  the  following  year,  would  seem  to  suf- 
fice for  the  whole  round  of  transformations. 

In  Dr.  Staudinger's  Catalogue,  Colin^  Boothiij  Curtis,  is  put  down  as 
a  synonym  of  ffecla;  but,  in  the  opinion  of  Mr.  M'Lachlan,  the  two 
are  distinct  species.

stricted in  distribution  than  Freya^  and,  so  far  as  known,  is  limited  to 
Xortbeast  Americaj  from  Labrador  to  the  Arctic  Sea.  It  was  taken  by

the  American  Expedition  (Polaris)  at  81^  50'.  It  varies  much  iu  color.

rado  and  New  Mexico,  In  the  TVliite  Monntains  it  is  abundant  on  the 
Bommit  of  Mount  Washington ;  but  in  the  territory  between  this  region 
and  Labrador  it  is  unknown,  as  also  between  Mount  "Washington  and 
the  Eocky  Mountains.  How  far  to  the  northwest  of  the  continent  it 
flies  is  not  known  to  me.  It  has  not  appeared  in  collections  from 
Alaska,  in  which  Frcya  was  represented  in  considerable  niunbers.  The 
peculiar  distribution  of  this  species,  C.  SemUlca^  by  which  it  inhabits 
mountain  summits  thousands  of  miles  apart  and  not  the  inter\'eni«^^ 
country,  and  in  the  White  Mountains  of  Xew  Hampshire  is  thoroughly 
isolated  and  restricted  to  a  very  small  area,  is  explained  as  in  the  case 
of  plants  similarly  distributed  and  isolated  (address  of  Prof.  Asa. 
Gray,  Dubuque,  1872).  The  advance  to  the  southward  of  the  glacial 
ice  pushed  before  it  multitudes  of  plants  and  animals,  forcing  them 
along  very  distant  lines  of  longitude  in  many  cases ;  and  when  the  re- 
ceding of  the  ice  took  place,  and  a  milder  temx>eratiire  began  to  prevail, 
some  species  which  had  obtained  a  foothold  at  the  south  remained  there, 
finding  a  climate  in  which  they  could  live,  upon  lofty  mountains  only, 
being  unable  to  exist  in  the  lowlands.  In  the  case  of  this  butterfly, 
such  a  climate  was  found  at  or  near  the  snow-line  in  the  Eocky  Mount- 
ains, and  upon  the  summits  of  the  White  Mountains.

The  Howgate  Expedition  arrived  in  Cumberland  Sound  about  the 
middle  of  September,  1877 ;  the  ground  was  then  covered  with  snow, 
but  this  melted  on  the  southern  slopes  some  days  later,  and  exposed  a 
few  plants  still  in  flower,  Campanula  rotuiidifoUa,  Lychnis  apetala,  Stella- 
ria  langipesj  var.  EdwarMij  &c. 

In  the  succeeding  sunmier  the  Florence  left  her  winter-harbor  early 
in  July,  and  while  there  was  yet  considerable  snow  I'emaiuing  in  the 
valleys.  At  the  time  we  left  our  winter-quarters  there  were  but  four 
or  five  plants  in  flower  in  the  vicinity,  such  as  Tarajcacmn  Dens-konhj 
Cochlearia  officinaZiSy  Sajcifraga  stellata^  and  Saxifraga  rirulariSj  var. 
hyperborea, 

Pyrola  rotundi/olia,  var.  pumila,  showed  buds  on  a  southern  slope  by 
the  last  day  of  May,  but  the  same  i>lants  were  not  iu  flower  by  July  7. 
The  season  appeared  to  be  unusually  backward,  frequent  suow-stoi'ms 
prevailing  till  the  latter  days  of  June. 

At  America  Harbor,  on  the  east  side,  and  nearly  opposite  Aunanac- 
took,  the  winter-harbor,  plants  were  in  much  richer  profusion  and  ap- 
parently more  than  a  week  earlier  than  at  the  former  place. 

As  large  a  number  of  plants  were  collected  here  as  our  short  stay 
■would  admit  of.  A  few  days  were  also  spent  at  the  Kikkerton  Islands, 
and  such  of  the  islands  as  were  accessible  to  us  faithfully  himted  over, 
but  many  species  were  not  yet  in  flower. 

On  the  south  shores  of  Bisko  Island,  Greenland,  we  collected  for  a 
few  days  in  August,  and  here  the  bulk  of  our  plant-ooUection  was  made. 

Many  species  were  found  here  that  we  had  collected  in  Cumberland, 
but  they  were  strikingly  more  luxuriant  and  generally  quite  abundant. 
In  the  following  list  the  species  collected  ht  points  iu  Cumberland  Sound 
will  be  indicated  by  the  letter  C  j  those  from  Disko  Island,  Greenland,
